This material can be used in Studio Mode. (What is Studio Mode?)

Add a layer of drop shadow to anything! Keep pressing play to increase the amount of shadow!

Here's a set of three auto actions for making a cute drop shadow effect!  It'll work on other layers, not just text, even though that is what I made it for lol.

How to use it:

  • If you want it to also have an outline, start here!
  • Select the layer you want the effect to happen to.
  • Pick the first auto action, Generate Outline Layer, and press play.
  • Fill the new layer with your outline color, then move that layer beneath the original layer.


  • If you just want the drop shadow, start here!
  • Select the layer you want the effect to happen to.
  • Pick the second auto action, Drop Shadow, and press play.
  • Fill the new layer with your drop shadow color, then move that layer beneath the original layer.


  • If you did both of those things and want the original layer to have a hollowed out effect, do this last!
  • Take the original layer
  • Make sure it is pure white in color
  • Merge it with your outline and drop shadow layers (They must be a color other than white!)
  • Select the third auto action and press play!
