Effect Stylize only contains Glowing Edges in illustrator cc

I was using Illustrator CC today and had the Drop Shadow show up in the menu of Effect > Stylize.  Now all I see in this menu is Glowing Edges.  How did this happen and how do I get all the effects to show up again?
Edit:  Never mind.  I was looking under the Photoshop Effects section instead of the Illustrator Effects section.  Oops; I am new to Illustrator.

Thanks Jacob.  I found the answer last night.  I wonder why they needed to separate the two types of effect menu's.  Could they have just merged the two menu's so when you're new and tired you don't go to the wrong menu (like me).  I will have to see if the two groups are different in any way later tonight after work.

  • Glowing Edges in After Effects

    Hello,
    I am trying to make a shape appear as if it is glowing. I do not know what effect to use to create glowing edges... The glow emitted by the shape must be able to span very far distances (the glow should take up most of the screen).
    Any idea?
    Thanks,
    Jack Reynolds
    Running Adobe After Effects on Windows 8.1

    You will have to pay for Trapcode and most other 3rd party plug-ins
    You can create a glowing edge by duplicating the layer, blurring one of the duplicates and changing the blend mode to Add.
    You can use Layer Styles
    There a zillion ways.

  • Illustrator CS6 crashes using Effect Stylize Drop Shadow. There's a work-around

    Illustrator CS6 crashes when using Effect > Stylize > Drop Shadow on a regular shape e.g. rectangle created by the Ractangle Tool.
    I select the shape, apply the effect and it will crash giving this warning dialog: "The operation cannot complete of an unknown error: [CANT]". Then Illustrator CS6 crashes.
    This is the crash report in Windows 7 32-bit:
    Faulting application name: Illustrator.exe, version: 16.0.0.682, time stamp: 0x4f6e762b
    Faulting module name: MMXCore.8BX_unloaded, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4f44e8d6
    Exception code: 0xc0000005
    The crash happens about 90% of the time.
    Possible work-around:
    Since I experienced some strange behaviour of CS6 applications before, I experimented witn running Illustrator as an administrator (elevated privileges). When I do that, I can apply the effect without Illustrator CS6 crashing. Here I go again..elevated privileges (see http://forums.adobe.com/message/4432510) .
    I have to admit, this is one of the many strange behaviours in CS6 applications that make their performance and reliability very unpredictable.
    Cheers,

    Because there's no need to do a "repair permissions" thing, that being a bizarre Apple concept.  In Windows, the software installation neither "sets permissions properly" nor does previously installed software "change your system" (whatever that means).  Windows installation packages run under a special account to copy files into their proper directories without having to "change system properties".  It's all done automagically and managed by Windows, not by individual applications.

    Like I said, all of that makes no sense on Windows.

    I did rename the Prefs, and AI did re-create it, and the SFW problem I described was resolved.  Great!, I thought, until I closed AI and opened it again -- Boom!  Same problem.
    The problems I described happen because software developers (and the Q&A testing teams) have an arrogant attitude -- they think "I'm the King of my computer and, by God, I'm going to run my computer as the most powerful user I can be."  So they do all their work under the elevated privileges of an administrator account, and are completely surprised and clueless when their software fails to run under a standard user account.  (Always running one's computer under the reduced privileges of a standard user account, by the way, is the recognized Best Practice for safe computing; and in these times it is now unacceptable to require elevated privileges to run an application....)

  • How to make a glow gradient in illustrator?

    I made a shape and added a gradient to it, then I added a glow effect around the edges, how do I make the gradient inside of the shape match with the glow color? The glow effect is only 1 color, I want it to be a gradient like the gradient I made inside of the shape. How do I do this?

    What is the color of each stop in the gradient you are using on the inside? Please provide a screenshot if that will help us understand what exactly you are trying to accomplish.
    Outer glow is like a gradient, except you only define 1 color stop, and it ends at 0% opacity.

  • Effect stylize round corner won't apply

    Hi there.
    I created this shape in illustrator: 2015-01-26_1416 - losse2010's library using the pen tool. I then used the effect > stylize > round corners to give the round corners as you can see. However, the corner on the top right didn't round. I'm not sure why but it's the only line created with the pen tool that actually has an arc and not a straight line. Here's a quick video on a similar shape that shows the corner not being rounded: 2015-01-26_1418 - losse2010's library if you notice... that corner doesn't get rounded.
    Please help!

    omis,
    A zoom shows little, only moving shows the number of coinciding Anchor Points; or you can look at the Document Info palette with Objects selected and see whether the number is right.
    Smart Guides are your friends, but anchor actually means at least one Anchor Point.
    I still believe it is worth trying the silly move test.
    I am a bit uncertain what is actually going on in the video.

  • I have a problem with the effect gallery and the saving libraries in Illustrator CS6

    Hi everybody
    I have a problem with the effect gallery and the saving libraries in Illustrator
    1. When you go to to effects > effect Gallery the the sketch filter always is black and white. Is this normal? In Photoshop you can set your background and foreground and the sketch effects takes those colors. Is there any way to do this in Illustrator? I have tried changing the colour of the fill and stroke but nothing...
    2. In the same area as before effects > effect Gallery .... In Photoshop you can add multiple filters with the create new button. Always is off is there anyway to make it available? or the only way is to by creating several individual ones and manage then in the appearance panel ...
    3. I saved a brush library and now it appears in the user defined area so I can get it in any document, that is good but any one knows how to delete a user undefined library?
    Many thanks in advance for the help .... I look forward for the reply =)

    I see that it is six months ago that I first posted this. Nothing has changed. When I use affixa to create a message with an attachment from my gmail account in firefox, the message is created in drafts, but the gmail window is closed and I have to re-open it. Not critical, but annoying.
    Now there is a plug-in on the affixa site that is supposed to be designed for Firefox, and which affixa support claims should take care of this. And I've downloaded it twice. When you download it and open it, it says that it will be installed when Firefox restarts, and gives you a button to restart Firefox. But after you click that button and firefox disappears and re-appears, the affixa plug-in is NOT in the plugin list.
    Please, somebody, HELP.

  • How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud

    How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud and will only be available on this computer"?
    You must surely be able to add and subtract songs on specific playlist?

    I fixed this issue (with help from tech support) and it involved several things.
    After adding a song to iTunes, right-click on the song in iTunes and select "Update iTunes Match."
    OR go to the iTunes menu-->Store-->Update iTunes Match.
    Maybe that's the reason, it just hadn't updated to the cloud.
    OR maybe it's not a high-enough bitrate file.   This happens to me because most of my tunes are home-recorded.
    Sometimes converting to .mp3 or Create AAC version might work. (You do this with a right-click in iTunes, and then you will want to remove the original file from iTunes.)
    There is an iTunes Preferences setting, under General Preferences called Import Settings.  Try setting it to AAC Encoder and iTunes Plus.   That (I think) causes imports to be slightly better quality.
    Good luck!  The tech support person at Apple is requesting that a knowlege-base article be written about this.

    I'm sorry to see that no one has answered this. I'm hoping Apple with reply to my support request, as I'm having the same issue. I really don't want to continue with iCloud at this point.

  • ICal [Exchange calendar]: "This calendar can only contain to do items"

    Hi, after SL upgrade I cannot add/edit any longer my exchange accounts calendar in iCal. It only says that "This calendar can only contain to do items".
    I have tried to delete the account and reset it but it didn´t solve the issue.
    We are using Kerio Mail Server as Exchange solution.
    Should I wait for 10.6.1 to fix this or is there a work around?

    It was my fault, because this problem really a Kerio Mail Server faliure!

  • Why can i see only one picture in the illustration windows with iTunes 10.5.1?

    why can i see only one picture in the illustration windows since iTunes 10.5.1?

    Assuming Apple doesn't eviscerate the files of the secondary graphics with another upgrade, there could be a plug in that reads the graphic and runs along side iTunes..we should get someone or Apple to program an alternative If we have to accept this downgrade in iTunes proper.
    I've developed a quick workaround, and am still hoping Apple will fix this!
    Go To Get Info on the tune you want to see secondary artwork for.
    Go To the Artwork tab
    Drag the back cover to the desktop, and it will create a new jpg you can open with quick viw or prieview where you can see it large!
    you end up with a lot of jpgs on the desktop to discard!

  • Why can't I use the Glowing Edges on a photo? I am trying to follow a tutorial and when it gets to using that filter it stays grey and wont allow me to use it. It is really frustrating. I have changed images several times hoping it would change things but

    I am following a tutorial in CS5 to learn how to make an image look like a drawing. When we get to the part where I am supposed to use the glowing edges filter it will not allow me to use it. why? I need to access it, how can I get around it?

    Ask in the forum for whatever product you are talking about and by all means do provide some proper technical info like what program you actually mean, system info, document info etc..

  • How to change the paragraph style of every paragraph that only contains an anchored object?

    Hi,
    I have a document in word that needs to be converted into indesign. The document containts instructions, each step followed by an image.
    I've managed to import the document into Indesign, and applied a paragraph style with numbering to everything (text an image).
    Now, how to change the the paragraph style of every paragraph that only contains a image? I need to get rid of the numbering.
    Thanks in advance.

    Create two Paragraph Styles and name them Image and Non-Image. Apply the paragraph styles manually to the text containing image and not containing images.
