Drop Shadow

Drop shadows can be applied to a 2D particle system, to the emitter as a whole, or to the
individual particles in the system. To apply a drop shadow to the emitter as a whole,
select the emitter, then select the Drop Shadow activation checkbox in the Properties
Inspector.

Note: The Drop Shadow parameter is not available in the Properties Inspector for the
emitter when the Box or Sphere emitter shape, or the 3D checkbox, is selected in the
Emitter Inspector.

To apply drop shadows to individual particles in the system, select the (dimmed) source
object in the Layers list, then select the Drop Shadow activation checkbox in the Properties
Inspector. For more information on working with drop shadows, see
