I'm a user of Corel VideoStudio Pro x4 and recently found this feature not working properly. I'm trying to drop a blue shadow against the font. I'm getting a black shadow instead.
Please see here:
And this is what I'm getting at the end:
Previously I worked with Corel Videostudio Pro x2 and that feature was working perfectly.
I'm using Premiere Pro CC. I have created a title in title tool and I have added a drop shadow. I can see the drop shadow when I still have the title tool open. Once I close the title tool window the drop shadow disappears? I have tried different fonts nothing seems to work. Don't know what else to try?
I drew a box, then applied a drop shadow going to the right. I duplicated the layer, then dragged it to the left of the first box. I edited the drop shadow to go to the left, and it changed, but so did the first one. I cannot get the two drop shadows to go in different directions.
I've tried different things, drawing separate boxes, etc. but it still will not work.
Does anyone know why this is happening or why I can solve it?
I'm building a web page and wanted to add some drop shadows to my photos to make them pop a little. how to add a drop shadow,
1.First way was I selected the entire photo and tried a layer effect. Didn't work.
2. Then I created a new layer that was a rectangle. put it behind the background copy and tried to add the dropshadow to the rectangle thinking it might show up from behind the bg layer. I couldn't even add the drop shadow to the rectangle.
When i apply a drop shadow to one layer, then add a drop shadow to another layer, their directions stay linked so when i change the direction of the 2nd shadow, the first one moves too. Why is this?
I would like to add an even drop shadow all around an image. But when I move the angle from O to 180 degrees the shadow moves. I want to make the drop shadow the same at 0 as at 180.

I've been following a few tutorials that say to use Effect > Stylize > Drop Shadow, but for me Drop Shadow is not available in that menu. The only thing that is available is "Glowing Edges." I'm trying to add a drop shadow to an ellipse, but I've tried it with lines and even that didn't work.
I am making a sign for sign writing. The overall size is 2400mmx1800mm. so its quiet big.
But When I go to put a drop shadow behind it it comes up with this - " The combination of artwork size & resolution exceeds the maximum that can be rasterized"
Why is it saying this? How do I put a drop shadow on it?
Drop shadow behavior has changed recently, maybe between 12.0 and 12.1 update.
Since ever, drop shadow has been applied before transforms, causing us to compensate shadow angle when rotating layer at the same time. Now it seems that we don't need to compensate anymore, as if shadow angle was applied after transforms.
This is definitely a handy update, but is there a way to reverse this behavior to the old one, for compatibility purpose ?
I am using CS4. I want to add a shadow to some text. It works on one piece of text, but not on another. It shows the shadow in the layers palette, but it's grayed out (on the one that's not working). I tried converting the text to outlines... same thing. The layer isn't locked... so I don't know what's going on. Why won't my shadow show up?
But as soon as I flatten the image or merge visable the drop shadows disappear.I had to actually take a screen shot in order to show what I'm talking about.
m trying to get double drop shadows. i came across an article that said i could convert the layer into a smart object and give it additional shadows. however, when i try that the original drop shadow gets stuck onto the new one. i need them to go in slightly different directions.
I'm trying to add a drop shadow evenly to the right and left side of am image. I tried applying it to the right side, and then the left side, but Photoshop Cs, won't allow it.
I made a logo on a transparent background. Now, the export wizard doesn't work well with drop shadows, and neither does save for web. Is there any way to make the background transparent well with a bigger drop shadow, or should I just see the background color to the color the page will be?
I try from using the simple drop shadow fx or complex suggestions building several different layers, I never see the final effect on the photo. I even click and unclick "preview" but it makes no difference. The photo displayed in my CS4 window continues to look just like the photo when I first opened it. Am I supposed to flatten the layers or somehow bring them together into one layer?
how to make a drop shadow but it must be transparent.I am working with an image but the image will be on top of a background so the image with the drop shadow must be transparent ( just the shadow must be transparent ) to show the existing background as well.
I have two object that i would like to put the drop shadow on but one on the left and the other shadow to the right but i do that they go to the same direction.THe objects are in different layers. I trying changing it on the dialog box that has the drop shadow but it effects the entire graphic that i am creating. How do i do this?
i used to make them manually, but i understand cs2 does it automatically. i have tried, making duplicate layer, layer style, drop shadow, but the shadow never materializes.
Upon inserting a .xcf drop-shadowed image into another .xcf image - by selecting Open As Layers - it inserts fine, but when I select the Move tool to move the image, the drop shadow doesn't move with the image. I tried selecting the drop-shadow layer from the layers - channels, paths area, but when I do that, and then try to move the drop shadow, instead of the drop shadow moving - when I select it, the entire background moves.
I cant find the drop shadow plugin download link. I also need downloading it. What is the download link for the drop shadow plugin, I need it for a project.
I find out I didn't leave enough room for a drop-shadow effect to end smoothly, rather than being cut off where I cropped the image. Is there an easy way to know exactly where the drop shadow ends, exactly where it's safe to crop the image?
see the bottom edge of the attached example image.
Today I upgraded from Design Standard CS5.0 to CS6, and as I am running Windows 7 64bit I chose the 64-bit version of Illustrator.
Now every time I start Illustrator it reports "Error loading plugins. Drop Shadow.aip"; after clicking OK it starts normally, but obviously without the Drop Shadow plug-in.
Then, I open a new document, draw a rectangle and select Effect/Stylize/Glowing Edges; the first time in a session I do that, Illustrator produces a pop-up saying "The operation cannot complete because of an unknown error. [CANT]", but on OK shows the Glowing Edges work area without problems. After finishing the Glowing Edges effect, I can then select it in that session without getting the pop-up. As Drop Shadow is in the Stylize category of Illustrator CS5 I suppose the pop-up is a side effect of the failure to load Drop Shadow.aip.
I'd like to add drop shadows to layers without it hitting the background - so it only lands on the actual objects behind.
I've currently done this by creating clipping paths to mask off the unwanted areas, but this is a faily complex setup on the file I'm dealing with. If I change the positions of any of the (many) items on the artboard, I have to recreate all the masks.
Is there a simpler way without using masks, like, for example, just telling the file not to render effects on the background?
