How are shadows created in the volume?

The shadows are generated using the bounding objects shadow data. So if you have a sphere lit from the top left with 100% Diffuse and 0% Luminosity, you get normal shadows in the volume. If you change the surface to 0% Diffuse and 100% Luminosity, the same way the ball would not have shadows without WaveFilter Volume, the volume will not have shadows either.
