Changing the shadow color or fill effect

After applying a shadow to an object, you can change the shadow's color or fill effect. You can apply any of LX's color effects including multi-stage fills.

How to change the shadow color:

The easiest way is to drag-and-drop a color from the Color Line onto the shadow. (Make sure you drop the color onto the shadow and not the object.)

Alternatively:

This method is slightly more complex but you have full control over the color.

1. Select the shadow using the Selector Tool. (Make sure you select the shadow and not the object.)

2. Use the Color Editor to edit the color.

Note that you can also select the shadow using the Shadow Tool. Click on the shadow to select it.

Tip:

If you have several shadowed objects selected, any changes apply to all the shadows.
