    Line tool Layer Shadow

    Add the legacy shadow options:

    Object / Layer / Offset

    I would like to get back the offset options in order to have better shadows for paths. The offset allows for automatic placement of the shadow to match the lighting and the Layer option will use the preset for all the map. The current option for shadows add a "Glow effect" around both sides of the path with is counterintuitive when placing walls or bridges.

    In the attached examples, the left top bridge is with path tool, the right one is built manually.

    Furthermore, I insist on having the "layer" option for shadows as it works as a preset for the entire map and is a massive time save for large maps.

    There is a custom shadow option in the advanced stroke options.

    I'll merge this in with the Layer Shadow request.
