I was making a A0 size scientific poster and wanted to add dropshadows around the frames of various sections. The built-in raster drop shadows sent my file size to a whooping 800Mb. With your vector version, the file weights 5 MB. lol! Thx a lot for the tip!

Anyway, please add another using gradient mesh for shadow as I have seen some advanced designers doing this. Amazing technique.

But I still can't get my gradient like yours. Ah, just tired, it’s supposed to be ‘stroke’ of course.

What does 'take off the stoke' mean and how to do it? My gradient panel (or result) doesn't look like yours. I fill it with a radial gradient but I can't have not a radial or get rid of the little left and right 'boxes'. As you can tell I am a newbie on AI! Please explain this anyone? Thanks, Lina ….’fill the circle with a Radial Gradient from the Gradient Panel and take off the stoke.’

My shape is an offset of some rounded text, but when I offset my offset and blend them, I get a grey bar as well :-( I’d love to know how you sorted this.
