Shading Animations display the shading effects of objects on or around the model as well as self-shading. The animation may be run, paused or specific days may be selected and reviewed. This feature is explained in more detail here.
You may also take a capture of the shading effect at any point in time that is displayed by clicking on the camera icon. There is more information in this Section
Note: The Shading Viewer requires Direct X version 10 and may not be supported in older Microsoft Windows versions such as Windows 7 OS and earlier.
