Page Shadow

Is there a way to have the page shadow go around the entire page

**Egg Bramhill** · 22 March 2017, 01:50 AM

Yes Gary, but I'm not sure whether it works for all versions.
Open the page & Layer Gallery,
Click the Page Background Layer.
Click on the page background.
Click on the shadow tool.
It should show a Drop Shadow.
Change this to a Glow Shadow.

Having said all this there does appear to be a conflict between the Utilities / Options settings and that of the Web Property options.

That works perfect.

Thank You

There's only one problem with the process (which is the correct way to do it).

If you resize the page (make it longer for example), you must redo the shadow (or for other cajuns like me, the "chadeaux").

Spot on Dijenga. A true PIA.

Not too bad. I simply use 0 pixels offset, 25 pixels for the blending distance and 75% transparency. When I finish editing the page I punch in those values and move on.

I just like those particular values for some reason.

Probably off topic, but some of the pages on my site have the remnant of a page shadow, which I did not place there. It seems to be Part of the "design page edge".
I have attached 3 screen shots. Some of my pages have this, others don't.
If you need to look at the site, it is: www.ebg-veghel.nl.

Additionally (seems like it might be related) some webpages cease to scroll down where the page end in WebDesign. Others go on for a while, showing no content (there is no content there in WebDesign). This is also quite inconsistent, and I cannot see any reason for it.

Help me... :-(

David, have you checked File > Page Options > Page: Show page shadow is unticked for each page?

Hi,

Thanks, that indeed did the trick. Seems odd though, since the option you sent me to reads: "Show page shadow during edit" (or something like that, I am translating that from my Dutch version). Why would remnants of the page shadow show up on the published webpages?
