Hi-

Just started having a problem with text that has drop shadow attributes where the shadow distance changes with the amount of zoom + -. This happen whether I'm using the zoom tool or the scroll wheel on the mouse. Any ideas? Examples below. Thanks for your input.

    Hi

    If you are using CC2019, go to Preferences >Performance and check "Use Legacy Compositing".

    The new compositing engine is throwing out some bugs.
