Bug: drop shadow overlap issue - AshColors - 11-04-2024
Hello, all
Bug: I am experiencing an issue where two layers that have drop shadows interact incorrectly where the drop shadows overlap.
Context: the layers are several layers apart from one another. Both have white drop shadows applied to them. Where the two layers' drop shadows overlap they are dark. The Mode of both layers are set to Normal. This was not happening a few days ago, I do not believe anything was updated or changed, but I might have accidentally hit a hotkey?
Example: Attached is a screenshot with red arrows pointing to the overlaps.
Request: Please suggest whatever you imagine could be the cause of this.
MANY THANKS!!

Oh hey, I'm a digus. After exhaustively scouring for hours, and finally giving up and posting here, I nearly immediately discovered the cause on accident.
Answer:
I have to set the Opacity in Drop Shadow to 100%. Any higher will cause the issue i explained above.

How can you set above 100% when the slider goes to max 100% or if you speak about the slider in the drop shadow window it goes max to 2 (full opacity)?
More seriously
, thanks for you edit to give the solution

This is a special build with opacity that goes to eleventy...
