Hello! Good morning.

Does anyone know if the Drop Shadow plugin works in Adobe After Effects 2023?


Or does it only work for old version? 


How can I enable or open Drop Shadow for after 2023?
Thanks!

You are looking at a Layer Style, not an Effect. Layer styles are available in the Layer/Layer Styles/Drop Shadow menu or by right-clicking on the Layer name in the Timeline and selecting Layer Styles/Drop Shadow.

    Hi there,

    The Drop Shadow plugin should work in all recent After Effects versions, including 2023. The Distance in the Drop Shadow effect settings is a bit less. Please set it to 30 and check if that works. Please also ensure that your background differs from the Drop Shadow color (I see it's set to a shade of black currently; try a contrasting color for your background). 

     

    Thanks,

    Ishan
