Trouble with 'glow' effects
I recently purchased this program and I am somewhat in awe with what you can do, or potentially do, if I were somewhat more apt with the software. I suppose in time I shall get better, however, for the moment I am having trouble with the 'glow' effects. Perhaps I have scaled the map too large (roughly Earth Size in proportions), or perhaps something is wrong. I have followed step-by-step tutorials by Joseph Sweeney and the only problem/difficulty I have at current is the glow effect, which despite following the exact commands given by Mr. Sweeney refuses to change a single piece of the map at all. No border thickness, nothing.
Does this software work poorly on such largely scaled maps? Is there a trick I am missing?
I will welcome any assistance, and I will check in after work in seven hours. Thank you all ahead of time.

This wasn't covered in the tutorial, unfortunately. Or I wasn't paying complete attention. Er, how do I make certain of this?
Then, go into the sheets and effects dialog, select the same sheet from the list as the entity resided on, and make sure this sheet is set up with a glow effect.
Of course, if using the list command reveals that the entity is on the wrong sheet, you might wish to move it to your desired sheet instead of applying a glow to the current sheet.
