    Hi,
    I am applying a Card Dance Effect to an image and I can get that whole layer to cast shadows onto another layer but I can not get each one of the cells or squares (created with the Card Dance Effect) to cast shadows onto the rest of the cells.
    Any suggestions on how to get these cells to cast shadows onto each other?

    Thank You!
    Javier

    As far as I know, what you are asking for is impossible using the Card Dance effect. You could simulate the card dance effect with tons of 3d layers and expressions and that would work.
