    Aha, changing its order in the list worked wonders!

    1 last question (in theory); how do you get the 3d look to your floor edges? The shadowing on mine looks great, but there's no sense of depth to it. On yours, you can see that the serrated edging is above the water, but on mine it almost looks like a grey piece of paper sitting higher than a blue one.

    Hmmm....without seeing your Sheets or Effects hard to say. Did you try making the opacity of the shadow darker (increase the percentage, mine is set for 75%)

    Never use a big word when a diminutive one will suffice!

    That looks much better. Having it at 50%, in combination with having grid lines that were far too thick, was the problem.

    Thanks so much for your help, Neon!
