Shadow Problems

This is probably a really stupid question since I'm new to Kustom, but no matter what I do, the shadow on a shape I've created gets cut off. The shape is a circle and it goes flat on the top and bottom. Is there a way to fix that?

Add padding. I put 8px on each side.

You know what? I had tried that and it kept putting it off centre so I dismissed it. And now I've realised to put padding on both sides... Thank you!

Yeah i know its annoying, there is an issue in how minimal padding gets calculated when using shadows, i need to fix that

Soo how do you add shadows?

So pretty much select a shape or what not, then go to the fx tab. Select shadow:outer, then fiddle with the direction and blur and what not until you're satisfied

No problem haha KLWP is pretty intimidating but once you really get going it opens a whole new world of possibilities
