Hello,
I have made a layer with a Generated Star Effect in it.
I was able to enable or disable this effect and move the star as i wanted.

After some saves and adding of other layers, when I come back to this layer, I have no more items in Effects.
But i still can Show/Hide the layer and I see the star disappear and appear.

How can I get the Effects parameters back for this layer ?
Thanks

Did you accidentally flatten your star effect (Format → Effects → Flatten Effects)?
If you did, your star effect must have been converted into a regular raster and therefore is no more editable as a generated effect (maybe that's why there's no effects in your Effects panel currently).
To add a new effect to that layer, hit Add Effect button on your Tool Options tab.

Hello,
thanks for your answer
I don't think I have flattened my layer but maybe during all my works I may have done something that did it. I'll test again and I hope it's not a bug
Thanks
