I use ViaCAD pro V11 Build 1422 with the Powerpack V11.

The Function PowerPack -> Draw -> Shadow Projection do not work.
If you pick a solid for projection the outlines get red, but nothing happend.

Confirmed on my V11 in windows 7 pro. Each option does nothing.

Tried in SharkCad Pro 10, seems to work.
Try moving the solid after the Shadow Projection,
it just might be there.

Nope still nothing. I just tried in Shark 10 (non pro) and it works. Although, when you do the shadow, and then move the object the shadow doesn't update, however it is linked, as you can go and remove the links in the menu?

Yep every option does nothing. Have you tried moving that solid shape and see if the shadow follows? Like I say it's a linked surface put the link seems to be pointless if it doesn't move with the solid?

For me , the only value of this feature, is 'Ctrl' Outline of
a solid, and Export as a .dxf for plasma cutting.
Is there another use for this feature? Doesn't seem to do
much .
