The range of this property is 0 to 100, and the default value is 50.
The number of colors used by the
toon modifier and painter shader for a model is determined by
the
colorSteps property of the model’s toon modifier or painter shader.
Example
The following statement sets the shadowPercentage property of the toon modifier for the model
named Teapot to 50. Half of the colors available to the
toon modifier for this model will be used
for the shadow area of the model’s surface.
member("shapes").model("Teapot").toon.shadowPercentage = 50
