Create Editable Text Hard Long Shadow in Adobe Illustrator (Better than Blend & Offset Path Tool) 

Like others here I had the problem of the fx applying to both the Fill and Stroke fields. The trick was to use the Appearance window and select "Contents", which gives you separate fx controls over Stroke and Fill. With that I was able to duplicate the effect from the video. Thanks!

Only problem with this background solid shadow is when you zoom you start seeing layers of shadows basis on the count, I want that to be very smooth .

Loved this illustrator tutorial! Your step-by-step instructions are incredibly clear and helpful. ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉

Thank you, this really helped me out!

Thank you so much!!! This was very helpful!!

Thank you! Very helpful

Vey helpeful. i got it first try, thanks man

Perfect, thanks!

thank you so much for this tutorial

thank you, very useful indeed

Wonderful!

Thanks!

Thank U for Ur video tutorial. Could U pls tell me the name of the script font. Thank U Sir,

Thanks a lot ❤

Love your Video quick question how would you you make it transparent and just have the black outline? Tried just giving it no fill but it was completely black

Thanks for a great tutorial. Quick question: the strokes on each of my letters are overlapping. For example, if I type the word 'groovy' as you did, the stroke around that "r" is spilling over onto the "o" next to it. I tried turning the letters into shapes and then a compound path, but doing this removed all the fill color and turned the whole thing into a blob:) Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

thank you!

Hi thank you for this vid !! When I select the stroke column, I can't have access to any effects. Do you know why ?

Awesome and easy, thank you!

Excelent!

Thankyou bro

The copies turned out exactly the same like original with stroke and fill, not just the stroke like in the video.
