I just bought the confetti tool over at DAZ. Wonderful product. Lots of fun. But I don't want it to cast shadows. Unfortunately, there is no "body" part, so the only way I can see to make it not cast shadows is to separately go through all 140 elements individually. Anyone know of a script which can remove "cast shadows" on an object as a whole?
thanks

As far as I understand it, there has to be some parent actor - look in Window -> Hierarchy Editor and see what the parent is, you can select it from Hierarchy Editor and see its properties in the Parameter Dials window (although I'm not sure if that will turn off shadow casting for the whole figure).

Unfortunately, turning off shadows for the parent or body of a figure does not affect how all of its part cast shadows. Ardvark, I hope you find a script for this, because I run into this problem a lot as well (although I've never had to flip 140 switches!).

I would also like to find a similiar script that controls "visible in raytracing" for all parts, as I seem to have a lot of clothing that won't show up in reflections unless every switch is flipped....
