I drew a shape using the rectangle tool. I then added some options such as drop shadow, outer glow, etc... What is happening is if I create other shapes they automatically copy those options/styles how do I turn that off?

Thank you.

I dont think you want your shapes on the same layer, make sure you are putting the new shape on a new layer, because layer effects effect all the pixels on that layer, but not other layers

Each time I draw a new shape it's on a new layer, unless I'm missing something? Confused

I see now,
I thought I read that you used the marque tool, sorry,

with the shape tool selected there is a setting at the top of the screen that says "style" set this back to none, or the white box with the red slash. That should do it
