Set a global lighting angle for all layers

Using global light gives the appearance of a common light source shining on the image.

 Do one of the following:
  • Choose Layer > Layer Style > Global Light. In the Global Light dialog box, enter a value or drag the angle radius to set the angle and altitude, and click OK.

  • In the Layer Style dialog box for Drop Shadow, Inner Shadow, or Bevel, select Use Global Light. For Angle, enter a value or drag the slider, and click OK.

The global lighting applies to each layer effect that uses the global lighting angle.
