Keystroke to toggle ring shadows on/off?

Howdy All,

Is there a keystroke to toggle ring shadows on/off, instead of using the Render / View Options dialog box?

Thanks!

I'm not planning on adding a keyboard for toggling ring shadows, for the reason that it's not something I ever do except during testing. It seems like something you set once and then leave alone . . . am I wrong?

Personally, I just set 'em and leave 'em (render options), unless I want higher performance for something like recording a movie.

I asked because there are existing keystrokes for similar items, such as atmospheres, clouds, eclipse shadows, etc. No biggie <smile>.
