Frame Shadow Casting

[JoeCoppola-HIA]

Hello!

We were wondering if frame shadows, set here, could be driven by some property passed to the block? In some cases, we don't want the UI to cast a shadow in our scene or receive shadows. What would be the best means of disabling the frame shadow on ThreeMeshUI blocks we create?

Thanks,

Joe

Hi Joe, you can access the mesh at block.frame and set these properties, they will not be overriden by three-mesh-ui:

const block = new ThreeMeshUI.Block({
  width: 1,
  height: 1
);

block.frame.castShadow = false;
block.frame.receiveShadow = false;

At some point it could be interesting to set these with a component attribute, as you suggested, so I will keep this issue open.
