Shaded Material
The Shaded Material effect produces a shaded image from a height field. The height field is defined to have greater heights with lighter shades, and lesser heights (lower areas) with darker shades. You can combine this filter with the Height Field From Mask effect to produce quick shadings of masks, such as text.

Inputs

• Shading Image: A shaded sphere image. Colors from this image are used to shade the height field.
• Scale: The scale of the height field. Smaller values produce greater accentuation in the height shading. Larger values produce smoother, subtler results. The default value is 0.1. The range is from 0.01 to 2.0.
