Point light sources do not create shadows. In this scene two objects and a yellow light source are in the shadow of a bigger object. There are no shadows behind the left columns, and the floor is illuminated like if they were not there.

This is by design. FlexSim's shadow map currently only works with the first light source and only as a directional light. I will update the View Settings documentation to explain this limitation.
We are currently working on implementing a new shading method using ray-tracing that allows for more shadow-casting lights and for point-source shadows. Below is a short video demonstrating the feature. It is still a work-in-progress.
