My shadow macro is at https://dhsoftware.com.au/shadow.htm. Works with the traditional Dcad entities, but will not cast shadows of smart entities.

Rgs,

The password is in the ReadMe.txt file. Please read that file, but it starts with the following paragraph:
PLEASE READ THE LICENCE AGREEMENT AT THE END OF THIS README FILE.
IF YOU AGREE TO THIS AGREEMENT WITH THE AUTHOR THEN USE A PASSWORD OF 'AGREE' TO UNZIP
THE MACRO FILES (note that the password is case sensitive and must be entered in
all upper case).

I used to have an install program that had the normal licence agreement as part of the install, but due increasing false positive virus detections from a number of anti-virus programs I have opted for this agreement/password in the readme file. It is not an ideal solution, but it seems to get past the false positives. I had successfully submitted the install programs to a number of anti-virus vendors and the false positive results were fixed, but it appeared to be an increasing problem that I just did not have the time to keep up with.

Rgds,
David H.
