Drop-Shadow Function Request

[DavidREllis]

Greetings,

I'm so excited you (Adobe) decided to jump onto the "Canva" and "YouZign" bandwagon by creating Creative Cloud Express - fantastic idea, I applaud it. You even added in video features to beat out Canva's gif and animation gimmicks (that were crap anyway, let's be honest) - but YouZign still wins in terms of design ONLY because of 1 stupid feature. Dropshadowing.

Yes, on YouZign you can click a button, choose an angel, and decide the density and length from the target on your shadow and in 10 seconds your photos, facebook ads, and logos now look like you had a real photoshop pro do it, instead of a random joe off the street using Canva.

Please, for the love of quality art, add this feature so I can stop telling people to sign up for YouZign and I can send everyone to Adobe (not just the pros who aleady know about it and have it for the beefy true Photoshop / Lightroom / Premier Pro fuctions we all love).

That's it! Just that one feature and you guys win.

Sincerely,
David E.

100% need the drop shadow function to make adobe express go from cool to amazingly useful to send clients to (who would be using apps like canva, etc instead) 🙂

Hi! The link to submit feedback is not working, so I just wanted to say that a the dropshadowing effect for images still hasn't been added, and it is very needed!

@DavidREllis 
In a different post  Jack Torcello provided this work around.

Duplicate the Layer you wish to apply shadow to.

Blur the intended shadow layer.

Decrease brightness/increase contrast.

Use Multiply Blend if needed,

And/or reduce the opacity. Manoeuvre

Upper Layer so that it sits above this

shadow layer and looks good!

Best of luck

Agreed, not having Drop Shadow functionality for everything is a deal breaker.
