Most Object tools won't work unless they've got transparency around them This is most likely your problem. BTW, @welshblue, congrats on passing me on rep points. @lynxster4 is right on our tails... 3 Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Free Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zoxelocoja Posted August 6, 2019 Author Share Posted August 6, 2019 Maybe i didnt understand how2 use the plugin? In the last years, i've marked e.g. a rectangle on the background layer klickt on dropshadow, tada a Shadow appears. I've tried this one minute ago with PSP, no problem.

HyReZ Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) I use the Drop Shadow tool everyday and it will only create a shadow on text or images on a transparent background. It has always worked this way! Edited August 6, 2019 by HyReZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IHaveNoName Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) Yes ^ that is how PDN has always worked AFAIK. If you put drop shadows on text written onto a solid colour background the drop shadows will be applied to the background ie. behind the whole image area and therefore completely hidden by the image itself. In the example provide if you untick "Keep original image" the area within the selection box will display as full black (if you're using default Drop Shadows settings). The drop shadows are being applied to the whole of that selected area and only that area. Offset won't work because the working space is, again, just defined as that selected area. All you can do using Drop Shadows is change the selected area's colour and transparency. Anything you want to apply drop shadows too needs to be in its own transparent background layer.
