DropShadowBitmapEffect on a Popup

Hey guys,

It looks like the DropShadowBitmapEffect applied to a Popup doesn't seem to be working.

I am using June CTP bits.

Thx.. Alex

AFAIK you can't interact with the background (ie transparant and alike) when using a Popup.

I don't need to interact with it. I just need to show the shadow behind the Popup. Docs say it is supported. Am I right to assume it's a bug?

Alex,

This is a known issue.

Unfortunately, BitmapEffects (DropShadow/ Blur / OuterGlow / Emboss / Bevel) are not supported on popups (because of the way popups are designed). We will update the docs on popup to reflect this.

Thanks
