Layer Styles work in exactly the same way as Text Styles. The only difference is that they work with shape layers, while Text Styles work with text layers.
Creating a text or layer style
To create a Layer Style, select a shape Layer that you’ve applied styles to, then choose Layer > Create new Layer Style from the menu. Alternatively, open the Components View, click on the Layer Styles tab on the toolbar and then on the tab. Editing and applying Layer Styles follows the exact same process as Text Styles.
Tip: You can include Layer Styles a part of a Library for sharing with others. Take a look at Library Styles for more details.
