Change the color of all shapes in a layer

1 In the Expert mode, double-click the thumbnail of the shape layer in the Layers panel.

2 Select a new color and click OK.

Note: If the color of a shape doesn’t change when you pick a new color, check to see if the layer has a layer style

(represented by a style icon in the Layers panel). Some layer styles override the base color of a shape.

Apply a layer style to a shape

You can apply effects—such as drop shadows and bevels—to shapes quickly and easily using layer styles. Keep in mind

that a layer style is applied to all shapes in a layer. For example, if you apply a drop shadow style to a layer that contains

multiple shapes, all of the shapes will display a drop shadow.

1 Select a layer that contains a shape or in the Layers panel, click the New button and draw a shape.

2 Open the the Effects panel , click the Styles tab.

3 Double-click the thumbnail you want to apply to the shape.
