carraraOctaner question on shadow catcher

Hi Guys and Gals,

So i am having a heck of a time finding how to have an otherwise invisible plane catch shadows and AO in Octane. I know it is available. Just not finding the steps. I am stuck in 2.17 for now, as 2.15 is dropping models during animations.

Anyone have the info. to this for Octane 2.17?

 Thanks,

Rick

    I use that often with HDRI maps.
    But I still search a way to color the shadow...
