Quick Reference

■ Add Simple Shading to 3D Objects
Displays a flat-shaded image of the drawing in the current viewport.
Summary
Hidden lines are removed and a shaded picture of the drawing is displayed.
The SHADE command uses the colors of the object being shaded. Shading is
calculated based on one light source from directly behind the eye. Subsequent
changes to the drawing are not reflected in the shaded object until you use
the SHADE command again.
The shaded image remains in the viewport until the viewport is regenerated.
The shaded image cannot be printed or plotted; however, you can output a
shaded image to a slide using the MSLIDE command.
