To change the outer glow color in Photopea, you need to access the Layer Style settings for the layer you want to modify.

Here's a breakdown of the steps:

  1. Locate the layer: In the Layers panel, select the layer to which you want to add or modify the outer glow.

  2. Access Layer Style:

    • Option 1 (Double-Click): Double-click on the layer in the Layers panel. This opens the Layer Style window.
    • Option 2 (fx Button): Click the "fx" button at the bottom of the Layers panel (it stands for "Add Layer Style") and select "Outer Glow" from the menu.
  3. Outer Glow Settings: In the Layer Style window, click on "Outer Glow" in the left-hand menu. This will display the outer glow options.

  4. Change the Color: Find the color swatch (usually a square) next to the word "Color" or "Blend Mode." Click on this swatch. This opens the Color Picker.

  5. Select a New Color: In the Color Picker, choose your desired color. You can either:

    • Click within the color gradient box.
    • Enter a specific color value (e.g., Hex code, RGB values).
  6. Confirm and Apply: Click "OK" in the Color Picker. You'll see the outer glow color update in your image (assuming "Preview" is checked in the Layer Style window).

  7. Adjust Other Settings (Optional): You can also adjust the "Size," "Opacity," "Spread" and "Blend Mode" of the outer glow to fine-tune the effect.

  8. Finalize: When you're satisfied with the result, click "OK" in the Layer Style window to apply the changes.

In summary, changing the outer glow color in Photopea involves accessing the Layer Style settings, navigating to the Outer Glow options, and then using the Color Picker to select your desired hue. Remember to adjust the other settings, such as size and opacity, for a complete and tailored glow effect.
