    Default Area Shadow Width

    Where did the Area Shadow width setting go in v 9.5 or is there a new setting to control the hardness/softness of the area shadow.

    thanks in advance,

    oh, i figured it out. You need to change the area shape size in the details tag on your light. The lower the numbers the harder the edge, the higher the softer.
    if I had only tried to play around a little more first....

    Happy new year to you all...be safe
