Drop shadow problem in CS

Thanks for the reply Jean-Claude.

I'm set to multipy on both instances, one has the problem one doesn't.

Can you clarify?

(But a short answer is that teh Multiply "add" the color value of the
shadow and the underneath object. So yellow + Black, is Black with
Yellow that on screen will still look black...)
