Hi Josef,

try e.g.:

f[x_, y_] := Exp[-(x^2 + y^2)]

ShadowPlot3D[f[x, y], {x, -2, 2}, {y, -2, 2}, HiddenSurface ->False, 

Boxed -> True, PlotPoints -> 15, Lighting -> False, ViewPoint ->{-2.801, 

-1.785, 0.647}]



Note that the options Lighting -> False is needed, contrary to the manual.

Daniel
