Bug Description
I am trying to add a drop shadow to a rectangular shape that I am using to highlight part of a screen shot.
Is there any way of doing this? Is it a Plug-in ?
Thx :)

Shutter uses GooCanvas (a canvas widget for GTK+ that uses the cairo 2D library for drawing) and there is no built-in- functionality for adding shadows to arbitrary shapes (as far as I know).
We have to be very careful related to performance in general and I don't think that a custom implementation of adding shadows would be the best idea here.
I totally agree that this is a "nice-to-have" feature but it is too much work for the current milestone 0.80 for now (at least for me - if anyone else wants to contribute...just do it).
Don't know what milestone fits best currently.
