Ah, but the About picture is a fake:) There is no such option at the
moment, but a lot of people would applaud whoever were to implement
it.
I need drop shadows too, and although I'm not really familiar with Dia
or GTK, I would like to at least try to implement them, if anyone has
advice about how best to proceed.
Take a look at how highlighting is done, you may be able to adapt the
method to drop shadows, i.e. have a round of drawing drop shadows for
those objects that have them before the round of drawing the objects
themselves. However, some exporters may have a different idea of how
drop shadows are best represented. Since highlighting isn't exported,
the highlight algorithm doesn't have that problem.
Could it be done with a Python plugin, perhaps?
I'll leave that for Hans to answer.
