Drop Shadow Effect in Pixelmator

It’s a mystery to me how Pixelmator doesn’t have a drop shadow effect by default. I found a post on a forum explaining how to get ti to work. Hope this helps.

Here is the step by step.

-Download this file:http://belightcommunity.free.fr/download_file.php?uid=49

-Locate the file in the Finder and unzip it by double-clicking on its icon.

-Select the file “BC_Shadow_1.5.qtz”

-Press ⌘C to copy it

-Now press ⇧⌘G, type “/Library/Compositions” and press enter

-Now press⌘V. You might be asked to enter your password

-Now quit Pixelmator and start it again.

-The shadow effect is now installed under ‘other’ in the effects browser
