David said that you can have a drop shadow on the frame and object and proved it, but did not tell the listeners how to achieve this. I was not able to do it.
Select the image within the frame with the White Arrow or the Position tool and apply a shadow. The image must be put a little bit off the frame’s boundaries. Then select the frame with the Black Arrow and apply a drop shadow.
