You can turn off shadows in SolidWorks through the options menu. Here's how:
- Click Tools > Options.
- On the General tab, look under the Appearance section.
- Uncheck the box next to "Display shadows".
- Click OK.
This will disable shadows in your SolidWorks display, potentially improving performance, especially on less powerful hardware. Keep in mind that turning off shadows is a visual setting and does not affect the actual geometry of your parts or assemblies.
