      I often use transparent PNG objects as a material on face-me components for plants, people etc.
      One of the problems obviously is the square/rectangular shadows they cast.
      I usually just use TOS's freehand tool to roughly trace the edges of the actual image, erase the straight edges, then hide the new profile edges.

      I have been doing this a lot lately and it is very boring πŸ˜•
      Today it occurred to me that MAYBE once I saw some method or plugin that would help with the task...
      Am I going crazy, or have you guys ever hear/seen any tools related to this?

      Tks!

        If you see a toilet in your dreams do not use it.
