Tiny unwanted shadow cast

Hello Team,

There is a small shadow cast, no idea which object’s shadow. I have attached the screenshot and the project file below.


TBSE_Scene-01.blend (1.3 MB)



It’s caused by that little latch thing, depending on the rotation of the sun lamp. If you hide the latch in viewport, the shadow disappears. At least it did for me.

Thank you for the quick response. I am new to Blender, may I know which element did you disable in the viewport?

You’re welcome. You mean, what did I disable to get rid of the shadow? I just hid the window latch, or whatever that white thing in the corner is (Cube.007 as per KDLynch), to test if it was causing the problem, I didn’t really change anything.

cube.007 … it shows in the right hand part of the screen what was hid.

one thing i do when i have an unwanted shadow, is move the lights slightly. that may help you narrow down what is causing issues in the future. :slight_smile:
