Large black border
mouser:
ok, that makes sense.. it sounds like the Copy Image/Object to Clipboard is not properly handling transparency. will try to fix.
wideeyedguy:
I wanted to add in here just a bit.
I've noticed the same problem using the same sequence of steps as davekelly
without adding the objects. I capture, go in to SC, add a drop shadow, Ctrl+C to copy
to the clipboard, then go out to an email or Excel, Ctrl+P to paste - - wide black border appears.
I know for fact that I was doing this same procedure before, perhaps this latest update,
to capture then paste directly in emails and the shadow appeared just as expected.
Also, if I use the Thumbnail command, it puts a border and drop shadow around the
image and pastes in to outside app/email just fine - - except that the resolution of
the image gets fuzzy for some reason.
Not sure if it's related, but about two weeks ago I activated SC and all of my
Preference settings were reset somehow. It was a mess and still haven't gotten
everything back to the way it was since I didn't track my settings.
My screenshots seem to have a poorer resolution when creating a Thumbnail
and I'm not sure what is going on with that.
Thanks and looking forward to the fix on the Drop Shadow.

Any word on this bug? I installed the latest version and experiencing this issue. Am in the midst of a large number of screenshots for some documentation and I really need this to work properly (with shadow....not big black border). Any way I can get an older version of the software before this bug was introduced?
mouser:
there is no bug as far as i can tell -- choose menu "File -> Create Thumbnail" and set whatever border size, shadow, and smoothing filter that you want.
let me know if you are still stuck and think there is a bug i'm not understanding.
johnfdeluca:
Perhaps I misunderstood the OP. Here's what I am doing:
Capturing screenshot
Adding shadow
Copying to clipboard (via Edit -> Copy Image/Object to Clipboard)
Pasting elsewhere
The pasted version used to retain the shadow but now I just have a black border instead of a shadow effect wherever I paste
Using Windows XP
This appears in both the latest production version and the beta.
