The Effects option of the layers palette provides some excellent highlights and shadowing effects that can be applied to all types of layers. The real highlight in this feature is that, even after the effects have been applied to a layer, everything put on the layer has the effect applied to it.

The setting for the effect can be adjusted at any time and effects can be added or removed at any point of time and can still be applicable to everything in the layer.

A layer with effects contains a special "f" symbol as shown here.

Photoshop effects include six effects namely, Drop Shadow, Inner Shadow, Outer Glow, Inner Glow, Bevel & Emboss and Color Fill.

Select Layer 1.

Right click on Layer 1.

Select Effects.

Click on OK.

You will find that Drop shadow effect would have been applied to layer1.
