Is there a way not have shadows in paint 3D?

Hi fried_oreos，

Welcome to Microsoft Community.

I tested this problem and Paint 3D is currently unable to modify the texture and shadow of 3D objects. To some extent, the 3D object itself is illuminated, so there are shadows at different angles.

Unfortunately, if you want to work with 3D objects and remove shadows, you currently need to use more specialized 3D software to do so.

You can submit your suggestions about the lack of features in Paint 3D through the Feedback Hub, any suggestions will make our product better.

Thanks for your patience and understanding!If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know.
