EffectDropShadow.Feather property
Gets or sets the feather length for the dropshadow
Syntax:
Property Get Feather() As Long
Property Let Feather(ByVal Value As Long)
Remarks:
The Feather property returns or specifies the feathering length of a drop shadow. Values range from 0% to 100%. Low values create a more subtle feathering effect, while high values create a more pronounced effect.
Examples:
The following VBA example applies 50% outside feathering with inverse squared edges to all drop shadows on the active page.
Sub Test()
Dim s As Shape
For Each s In ActivePage.Shapes
  If s.Type = cdrDropShadowGroupShape Then

 With s.Effect.DropShadow


.FeatherType = cdrFeatherOutside


.FeatherEdge = cdrEdgeInverseSquared


.Feather = 50

 End With
  End If
Next s 
End Sub
