How to addd a drop shadow in AE?

[ffiigg]

Can't for the life of me where to add a drop shadow to an image or object in the new Adobe Express. 

Was the functionality removed in the latest (and somewhat troublesome) update?

Hi @ffiigg,

Thank you for reaching out, and I apologise for the confusion.

Adobe Express doesn't have a drop shadow feature, but we're constantly working on enhancing the App so it may in future. You can create a similar effect by duplicating the layer, blurring it, adjusting brightness and contrast, changing the blending mode to "Multiply," and reducing opacity. Position the duplicated layer beneath the original for a shadow-like effect.

If you have any more questions or require further assistance, please don't hesitate to ask, and if you feel this has helped answer your question, please consider marking this thread as the correct answer.

Thank you for your continued support ❤️ in making Adobe Express better.
