I'm trying to get an image that lets appear only the edges of my
objects.

But when I'm doing this:

global_settings { assumed_gamma 1 
                post_process { overwrite_file
                        color_matrix {< 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 >}
                        find_edges { 1, .5, 0, 1.5, 1.0, rgb 1 }
                }
}

the result is the edges, but all the black is appearing too in white and
the shadowed surfaces are becoming clear.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanx
DEPerere

OK, I finally found my error: DEPTH_THRESH in find-edges has to be set
much higher for my image.

Find-Edges & the matrix are very interesting PP, very complete. A lot to
play before understanding.

Thank for Megapov0.5

Glad to hear things are working!  I didn't fully understand your original
problem, but now it makes sense.

I did encounter the problem with DEPTH_THRESH and the curved surfaces
that HEDay is discribing in "Cartoon Tut" (p.t.tutorials).

About the sense of my original problem that you didn't understood, I've
too spend more time to write a message (a dictionary in hand) in
understandable english. So I'll avoid to write english like a spanish
cow is speaking french (=incomprehensible <8-#
