Hi folks, isn't this somewhat... :-) Whenever I have needed a drop shadow in Scribus, I would simply copy the text frame and slide the lower one a bit (plus little X and Y). If you want the shadow to appear somewhat grayish, just set the font in that frame to a gray tone. The same with a shadow of a frame (that, however, occurs much more often): Copy the frame, slide the lower one a bit and fill it with a gray tone. What I did not yet try is transparency, I only used this on a white background. As we can fill frames transparently, however, this shouldn't be too much a problem I guess. Or did I get you completely wrong here? Rolf
