outline type shadow for a complex character

Post by super8mm »

I can't seem to find in the forum where it explains how a complex character can be thick outlined or shadowed. The character has switch layers, multiple bones, masks. I tired activating shadows on a group layer, the bone layer, the switch layer, the vector layers, then ctrl P nothing.

Of course you know that you must render a frame to see any shadow effect.

I even rendered (ctrl P) in frame 1 in case 0 doesn't work.

Oops! I just realized that ctrl p and ctrl r do not produce the same effect.
