      Is there a way to have an outer glow (or other fx, for that matter) on only three sides of an object? I'm creating a newsletter and a box that I have on the spine has an outer glow that is showing on the left page. I want the left side of the box to not have the outer glow, but I'd like the rest of the box that's on the right page to have the glow.

      I'm on CS5.

      Is this possible (without just putting a white box along the spine on the left page :-)) ?

      Thanks!

      Sounds like you need a mask. Easiest way is to cut the object to clipboard, then draw a frame, and choose Edit > Paste Into.

      Yep, that did it … I always forget that trip in InDesign!

      Thanks!
