Default Can you save a custom shadow format?

I am trying to find out if there is a way to define your own custom shadow
preset. Anybody know how or if this can be done?

BTW - this question is for PPT 07. Specifically, I modify one of the "Outer"
Presets to give the shadow more depth - and tweak the other settings. I want
to know if I can save these tweaks to quickly apply the new shadow style to
other objects.

Use the Format Painter on the Home tab of the Ribbon.

To get the shadow presets onto one of the galleries, you'd have to tweak the
XML (by hand) in the THMX file.
