1. Re: Apply Effects to Text Frame and not the text
[Jongware]-9BC6tI Feb 7, 2011 5:44 AM (in response to Buzz81)The shadow effect has to have something to be applied on, but by default text frames borders and fills are invisible.
If you set the border of your frame to a color & thickness, you'll see it gets a shadow of its own, independent of the text. (Try it with dotted and dashed lines!)
Additionally, if you set the fill of your text frame to a solid color, you'll see the single solid shadow you were expecting.

3. Re: Apply Effects to Text Frame and not the text
AnshulJain19 Feb 8, 2011 2:03 AM (in response to Buzz81)Apply fill or stroke to your textframe and then apply drop shadow. It will get applied to text frame fill or stroke or object according to the setting in Effects dialog.
In effects dialog set 'Settings For' to Object/Fill/Sroke/Text, as you want.
