Summary0013623: Drop Shadows: distinguish for text and for images/text frames
DescriptionIn 1.5.0 the Drop Shadows make a shadow round an image or text frame.
In 1.5.1 the Drop Shadow is for the text itself.
But this is imho something for the text properties.
Additional InformationDon't delete the shadows for text - I like it, I need it ;-)

But please split it up.
My suggestion is an extra point in text. Colour & Effects - Shadow - First Line Offset...
The extra point is necessary because of the many possibilities (X-offset, Y-offset, Blur...)
But as a good news you could delete shadowed text from colours and effects as it is the same as shadow blur 0 ;-)

To sort it right would also help Martin with IndigoDock, I guess.
TagsNo tags attached.

I just found out that the drop shadow is around the frame if in PP - colours there is a fill colour.
If the fill colour is none, the shadow is around the letters.
That's clever, but imho not very intuitive ;-)

Can you propose a mockup? Perhaps Franz will be inspired by this ?

Sorry for the delay - thought about it and the current solution is good.
Only documentation is missing.
