Hi All,

I am creating some protein-structure figures and have a problem to get rid
of the shadows casted by the ribbon. I tried to apply more ligth sources or
to use a shadowless light source. Obviously in the letter case I used a
wrong syntax.
Would be great if someone knows how to do this could write me.
I tried this one:
object { light_source {< 0.000, 0.000, -200.000 > color shadowless
Intensity*0.300 }}

Sabine

If you realy don't want any shadow, remove ALL light and set ambient 1 
in the finish, but it will look flat.
You can keep your light(s) and add "no_shadow" to your ribon. It supress 
the casting of shadow and you keep the angle dependent lighting. Bind 
the whole ribon in an union and add the no_shadow to the whole thing.
