Once you've created a shadow, you can also fine-tune it as needed using the
Filter Effects dialog.
Using 3D filter effects
3D filter effects go beyond 2D filter effects (such as shadow, glow, bevel, and
emboss effects) to create the impression of a textured surface on the object itself.
You can use the Filter Effects dialog to apply one or more effects to the same
object. Keep in mind that none of these 3D effects will "do" anything to an
unfilled object—you'll need to have a fill there to see the difference they make!
The Studio’s Styles tab is a good place to begin experimenting with 3D filter
effects. Its multiple categories each offers a gallery full of pre-defined mixed 2D
and 3D effects, using various settings.
