Frequently Asked Questions

Will shadows look natural across different garments?

Yes — shadow placement adapts to garment shape. A flat-laid t-shirt and a draped dress both get appropriate, lifelike shadows.

Will it work on lay-flat and partial-3D items like jackets?

Yes — the recipe handles flat lays and items with some 3D structure, generating shadows that match the actual garment shape.

Can it batch process my full apparel flat lay catalog?

Yes. Upload your entire range and the recipe applies consistent flat lay shadow treatment to every garment in one pass.

Can I control shadow softness?

Yes. Shadow intensity and softness are configurable in settings, so you can match brand-existing imagery or set a consistent style across the catalog.
