<p dir="ltr">Hi,<br>
I think you need to create a mask. The easiest way is to use the raster calculator to create this mask on the DEM. </p>
<p dir="ltr">For example, if you use something like dem.tiif>10, then pixel bigger than 10 will be given the value of 1 and others will have the value of 0. Then you take this mask and multiply it with the hillshade.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Good luck</p>
