Question on a background

I am very new to Anime Studio and I am trying to create a background. I have added several layers in this file and after adding the kitchen in the adjacent room, I there is a shadow above the door now that is/was not there before I imported the kitchen files. I am using the non-pro version at the moment so I placed the kitchen files in a bone layer so that I could scale them to look more realistic. Any ideas as to why that shadow would pop in the render? There are no shadow properties set on the wall or door layer.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Keep checking the file. You must have a shadow assigned using the layer properties or a fill effect. Maybe you forgot it was there. Look at the channels in the time line. Look for keys in the fill properties? Or select the door frame fill shape and check the style property for a shadow.
Double click all the layers and check the "Shadows" tab.
Of course it may have been me practicing mind control through the internet. I try to create drop shadows in other people's documents using the power of my mind only. I don't think I'm that good yet though and it's almost impossible to find out if it worked or not.

You were right of course....I had a shadow fill effect on the wall layer for some odd reason. I checked every other layer, thinking why the heck would I use an effect on that wall.......
Thanks for the help.
