Global Shadows

[Nai]

Hey Guys,

I am currently designing a website for a client, I have got the general layout but i've came across a problem I haven't came across before. When I apply a shadow to a layer it applies them to all the layers.. I am sure they're a simple fix to this but I am currently unaware of how to stop it.

Thanks Nai

Hi Nai

Welcome to PhotoShop Gurus.

You need to make sure that in your layer style panel, the "use global light" box, is unchecked, other ways as you mentioned, every time you apply a drop shadow to any other layer, it will affect to all the rest of the layers using the same layer style, "Drop Shadow".



Hope this helps.

Wow thanks for the fast reply!

I don't know when I checked that checkbox, can finally get the shadows sorted on all the layers.

Thanks again!
