Is this a Drop Shadow bug? [SOLVED]

[wideangle]

Hello

I've just come across an inconsistency between a photo slide and a video slide.

The following example illustrates it:

1. Started a 1920x1080 new project

2. Set up some project options as follows:

Screen tab : solid colour white background

Defaults tab : 90% of slide to show and Apply to all slides set.

Defaults tab : Display shadow behind slide ticked and Apply to all slides set. Customize distance set to 12, Size set to 3 and Opacity set to 100%

3. Adding a few photo slides displays the shadow as expected.

4. Adding a 1920x1080 video slide gives a shadow, but not as expected, even though the shadow settings are correct if checked in the Objects and Animation.

I confirm this behaviour on my system. I used the "as shipped" settings for the dropped shadow. The shadow on the video object appears to be further back from the image than it is on a still image.

wideangle,

I confirm this problem with a shadow for a video object.

We'll try to fix it soon.

Thanks!

wideangle,

Please try the updated version:

It fixes the problem with a size of shadow for video objects.

Please let me know about a result.

Igor - Yes that seems OK.

Thanks Peter and Igor - I'm always impressed by the quick and positive responses on this forum.

Igor,

The default settings now produce visually identical results. Thanks for the quick fix.

Peter,

Thanks, I'm very glad!

I'll publish the official update as version 8.0.14 soon. You can use the test version, because it's stable.
