Mathias,

I know in pathfinder I've had to add a "Helper.Shadow" tag onto the items to be shadowed to the character. I'm guessing these Helper.Shadow tags are for enmassing hidden objects to a character? How does the Shadow tag actually work?

I've found information in the wiki regarding shadowing. I'm just wondering why we need a tag in Pathfinder for Shadowed things.

Shadowing is only used along with gizmos. If you want something in a gizmo to be displayed in tables on the hero, for example, if you want one of the item powers in a magic weapon to show up on the special tab, then you'll need to set up that item power to shadow itself to the hero, in which case Hero Lab pretends it exists in both containers.

It's the <shadow> element in the component that controls whether something is shadowed or not, not that tag. In Pathfinder and Shadowrun, the shadow elements are generally simple:

Code: 
<shadow><![CDATA[
  Helper.Shadow
  ]]></shadow>
