Each of these effects creates a new object attached to the original item. For example when you apply a
shadow to a shape, really what's happening is that a separate shadow object is created and tightly
grouped with the shape - so they are permanently attached to each other. The same applies to a bevel
and contour. In the Page & Layer Gallery these items are shown as Shadow Group, Bevel Group or
Contour Group. You can expand this group and inside you'll see the original shape, and the shadow (or
bevel or contour).
Because these effects are tightly grouped to the object, you'll find many operations will also change the
parent object, e.g., if you move or delete the shadow object, then the shape to which it's applied will
move or be deleted. You need to use the appropriate tools to change most of the attributes of the
shadow, bevel or contour.
