[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] OSRay and shadows

[Bob Flandard]

Hi Scott,

Here's a state file, where the shadow of the cylinder is approximately
perpendicular the the arrows on the ground. As I move the model around in
3d with the mouse, I'd like the shadow to remain perpendicular to the
arrows, similar to how it would look if I walked around the cylinder on a
sunny day (assuming I didn't walk extremely slowly). I'd like the light
source to be fixed relative to ground rather than the screen - I'm
surprised that isn't the default or an option (at least I haven't found it).

Thanks, Bob
