I'm confused: you're asking about AD (Affinity Designer) but you've posted to the Photo Beta forum. However, in this particular case it doesn't matter because the answer is the same. :)

 

Go to the Effects panel, expand the Outer Shadow section and press the 'Offset Tool' button. Drag on the canvas to create the shadow and adjust it visually, or use the Offset controls to adjust it numerically.

Sorry, new to here and got a bit excited.

 

Thanks for the answer.

I've tried this over and over, with no result. I've tried light canvas with dark shadow, and vice versa. Also tried with the "transparent" canvas with no color. Never any result on the image or canvas. The pixel layer has the little fx to show that something is applied, but it doesn't show on the image. I'm using v 1.5.2.69 on Windows 8.1.

Suggestions, please.

You probably didn't set offset ?
