backdrop (Backdrop Plane)

This element defines a plane in which effects, such as glow and shadow, are applied in relation to the shape they are being applied to. The points and vectors contained within the backdrop define a plane in 3D space.

[Example: Consider the following image as an explanation of the backdrop plane definition:

In this image we see a plane being defined by an anchor point, the vector normal to the face of the plane and a vector pointing up in relation to the plane. end example]
