Mysterious Black Line

[toulouse2k]

I can't figure out why I am getting this soft black line in all of my renders. I hope it's something I'm doing wrong and not a bug.

Are you getting this in every project or just this one? For example if you make a new project and create a shape and render it, do you get this line?

If its only in the file with the blue sticks and square then its probable just a corrupt file or some kind of image(shape) that is hidden.

Looks like you checked the shadow box in the layer properties. That is, the new shadow option in AS 7, the one that creates like a 90 degree, black copy of your object.
If you don't have AS 7 then I don't know what it is.

its odd that the shadow is in front of the square, the new shadow option would still be behind it, unless the shadow is from the shape at the bottom in a layer above the square. IDK what it is, i just tried everything i could to duplicate it and all i get is the same line but in back of the square.

Thanks for all your answers and help. I found the problem to be the fact that I had "Perspective Shadow" ticked on all the layers. This was a frame of a Physics animation.....I probably should have mentioned that...but it was your input that got me to look at each layer. That's why there is a kind of "layering" of the perspective shadow...as this was added to layers that were above the initial drawing.

I'll be glad when we get some tutorials for idiots like me.
