Best Setting for Drop Shadow Effect

Hello everyone! I just want to know what’s the best setting for the parameters of Drop Shadow Effect.

I just want the shadow to look like that. (sorry for bad drawing but I know you’ve all got the idea) I try mess with the parameters but it’s really a mess. Thanks in advance!

I think you need to mess with the alpha

And I don’t think this effect gives what you are showing in your picture, but try and see if it gives.

You can always use ShadowClones extension is good and realistic.
Other approach is to create and link the shadow to the parent sprite then set position to x/y as you need to.

You can’t get the effect you’re after with a drop shadow. Drop Shadow effectively takes the image, creates a black image of it, blurs it and shifts the position. To get what you’re after you’ll have to create a separate shadow object (or objects) and attach it to each object that needs a shadow.
