Fugue - I don't think it is possible (although I have the stripped down version of RDS, RayDream 3D), but I've come up with a work-around. I use the glow channel on the object and place a similarly colored light with very soft shadows very close to the object. If you're creating a still image, it's pretty easy to place the light so it doesn't look wrong. When things start moving is when it becomes a little more obvious that it's a trick. Chip
