ALAP releases ShadowCaster 3.0 with new feature set

Today ALAP proudly announced the release of ShadowCaster 3.0 for QuarkXPress 4.1 and 5.0. ShadowCaster 3.0 has been completely redesigned and loaded with NEW features. In addition to ShadowCaster’s ability to create quick and easy drop shadows with just one click, ShadowCaster 3.0 adds 6 types of effects to QuarkXPress! These effects can be applied to any QuarkXPress item, including text and images with full control over opacity, blur, intensity, color, and blend modes. Enhance your QuarkXPress
documents like never before! Create amazing results in a fraction of the time with ShadowCaster 3.0 and get the competitive edge you need to make your designs stand out from all the rest!

NEW! Features Include:

• LAYERS
  ShadowCaster now gives you the ability to create layers for selected QuarkXPress items. Apply special effects for layers and change the blending and opacity among layers!
• PREVIEW PALETTE
  View your effects before you apply them! This means no more wasted time. The Preview Palette shows all the visible layers on the current QuarkXPress page or spread your currently viewing. Fully adjustable view scale of the preview allows you to disable the preview while your working, specify the resolution and color management profile for previews.
• INNER SHADOW EFFECT
  Creates a recessed look by placing a shadow inside the edges of a layers content.
• OUTER GLOW EFFECT
  Creates a glow around the outside of the layers content.
• INNER GLOW EFFECT

• BEVEL/EMBOSS EFFECT
  Creates depth by adding highlights and shadows to a layers content.

  If you accidentally apply an effect to the wrong layer, or you simply
  want to use the same effect on another layer, you can cut, copy and
  paste effects to other layers.
• REMOVING APPLIED EFFECTS
  You can remove effects from layers and start over!
• DROP SHADOWS
  Creates a 3-D effect by placing a shadow behind the layers content.
• CREATE STYLES
  Save your favorite or frequently used Effects Settings as a Style for consistent, quick and easy repeated use to apply to other layers and items. Allows for a fully editable list of styles; delete, rename or share styles with other users.

Other new features include a Preview Palette so you can view effects before you apply them to your document -this means No More Wasted Time- and now you have the ability to work with layers. Apply multiple effects to items, copy and paste effects between layers. With ShadowCaster 3.0 you can achieve the results you want.
