Once you have applied a shadow (using the Shadow Style button on the Drawing
toolbar), you can use the Shadow Settings button to select the color.

Ok that works for the color in front which I did figure out before but how
about the shadow in the background? There is one in particular that I
really
wanted to use but the background shadow is this blah green. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

the Fill color.
