Displays a flat-shaded image of the drawing in the current viewport.
Hidden lines are removed and a shaded picture of the drawing is displayed.
The SHADE command uses the colors of the object being shaded. Shading is calculated based on one light source from directly behind the eye. Subsequent changes to the drawing are not reflected in the shaded object until you use the SHADE command again.
The shaded image remains in the viewport until the viewport is regenerated.
On systems that display fewer than 256 colors, SHADE produces an image that removes hidden lines and displays the faces in their original color with no lighting effect.
