I have a problem with drop-shadows.. I set drop-shadow for a layer, say at an angle of 125 degrees (so shadow falls under bottom right of layer..) then for ANOTHER LAYER I set it say, at an angle of -45 (so drop-shadow falls below lower left of layer..) but it changes it for previous layer also!! I can’t have a drop-shadow at one angle for one layer and at a diff. angle for a diff. layer.. when you change it for one layer it changes it for all the other layers.. this drives me nuts.. any suggestions/solutions would be appreciated.. thank you very much..
