angle	Number (range -180 - 180)	read/write	The angle at which the shadow is thrown

effectColor	Swatch	read/write	The color applied to the drop shadow, specified as a swatch (color, gradient, tint, or mixed ink), or as an array of color values. The color mode dictates the array values: for RGB, specify three values, each in the range 0 to 255, in the format [R,G,B]; for CMYK, specify four values, each as a percentage and each in the range 0 to 100, in the format [C,M,Y,K]; for LAB, specify three values in the format [L,A,B], with L in the range 0 to 100 and A and B in the range -128 to 127.
eventListeners	EventListeners EventListener	readonly	A collection of event listeners.
events	Events Event	readonly	A collection of events.
honorOtherEffects	Boolean	read/write	If true, the drop shadow will take into account other non-shadow effects.
isValid	Boolean	readonly	Returns true if the object specifier resolves to valid objects.
knockedOut	Boolean	read/write	If true, the layer will knock out the drop shadow.
mode	ShadowMode ShadowMode.DROP ShadowMode.NONE	read/write	The shadow mode.
noise	Number (range 0 - 100)	read/write	The amount (as a percentage) of noise applied to the shadow. (Range: 0 to 100)
opacity	Number (range 0 - 100)	read/write	The opacity of the drop shadow (as a percentage). (Range: 0 to 100)
parent	FillTransparencySetting StrokeTransparencySetting ContentTransparencySetting TransparencySetting	readonly	The parent of the DropShadowSetting (a TransparencySetting, StrokeTransparencySetting, FillTransparencySetting or ContentTransparencySetting).
properties	Object	read/write	A property that allows setting of several properties at the same time.
size	Number String	read/write	The radius (in pixels) of the blur applied to the drop shadow. (Range depends on the unit type. For points: 0 to 144; for picas: 0p0 to 12p0; for inches: 0 to 2; for mm: 0 to 50.08; for cm: 0 to 5.08; for ciceros: 0c0 to 11c3.128.)
spread	Number (range 0 - 100)	read/write	The amount (as a percentage of the blur width) to spread the footprint of the drop shadow and reduce the radius of the blur. (Range: 0 to 100)
useGlobalLight	Boolean	read/write	If true, uses the global light angle.
xOffset	Number String	read/write	The horizontal offset of the drop shadow. Range depends on the unit type. For points: -1000 to 1000; for picas: -83p4 to 83p4; for inches: -13.8889 to 13.8889; for mm: -352.778 to 352.778; for cm: -35.277 to 35.277; for ciceros: -78c2.389 to 78c2.389.
yOffset	Number String	read/write	The vertical offset of the drop shadow. (Range depends on the unit type. For points: -1000 to 1000; for picas: -83p4 to 83p4; for inches: -13.8889 to 13.8889; for mm: -352.778 to 352.778; for cm: -35.277 to 35.277; for ciceros: -78c2.389 to 78c2.389)
