I have just found that it works when using the symbol draw effects, I was u=
sing the layer draw effects which didn't seem to work. What a great effect =
QGIS is great!

Subject: [Qgis-user] Inverted polygons with draw effects in QGIS?

Hi

I am using the inverted polygon symbol so I can symbolise outside of my pol=
ygon area which works well - I would also like to use the draw effects so I=
 can include an outer glow and shadow around my polygon area but when I tur=
n these on, the inverted style stops to display and reverts back to it symb=
olising my polygon area. I am not sure if this is an issue or just how the =
symbology works in QGIS?

How can I set it so that I can use the inverted polygon to style the area o=
utside of my polygon, as well as include a glow / shadow on my polygon area=
 so it appears to pop up from the surface?

Thanks, Chris
