No Dropshadow on text

24.09.13…I can’t seem to apply a drop shadow to text. I guess it is something obvious but have tried for hours today. Filter “text rich” Filter "dropshadow… but I don’t get any shadow on text. Help appreciated

It only works on a text clip added to a video track above. You can create one using Open Other (second icon on the toolbar) > Text.
From the release notes

Added a Drop Shadow video filter that uses the input alpha channel. (This means that it will not work as expected when used after a text filter on a video clip; rather, you must use a text clip on an upper track.)
