Thanks for responding guys. I've taken a look at a separate PSD that was sent since and it has imported OK, so I'm assuming something was off with the first PSD. If I get the issue again I'll take a look at separating the layers as you've suggested. Thanks for your help.

Hi all, I've taken a PSD file (exported from CS6) and imported it into Affinity Photo. Although the import worked fine and all layers/groups are as expected, I've found all layers that had the drop shadow layer effect applied from Photoshop have had the effect merged into the layer in Affinity Photo. So I can't remove or edit the layer effect. This is the only layer effect that the PSD uses so I can't tell if it would do this for all layer effects or if it's specific to drop shadow. Is this meant to happen or is there a way I can prevent it from flattening the layer in future imports? Thanks.
