I've been messing around with the new 3D tools and even though i'm loving it, somehow the shadows keep getting cut just like in the picture below. I already tried changing the "add xx around object" value in Document Raster Effect Settings but id does nothing...

Hi there - probably a very late reply to this, but I was having the same trouble recently and found if I played around with 'Depth' (under Object –> Inflate) that worked for me!

Hi, I don't know if you're still having this issue or not, but you need to INCREASE the "shadow bounding" number to not see the borders. Decreasing the number "cuts off" the shadow more. 
Hope that made sense!

Hi Can you please help me, the shadow bound is at 400% (the max) and there is still the sharp edge.  (see picture below).. I have looked everywhere and don't know what to do ...

There is a setting in the shadow options called "shadow border" or the like (I have a German version). Can you try it?
