Remove drop shadow from Markup Toolbar shape in Preview PDF

Found the answer on Ask Different when looking for an answer after not finding one here.


Select your shape, then go to the Shape Style drop down menu and choose the bottom most option for line style. That turns on/off the drop shadow for your shape. So simple!


Here's a link to the Stack Exchange Ask Different page where I found this solution. I am not at all affiliated with them and never saw that page before a few minutes ago.
