If by “previous frame shadows” you mean onion skinning, then there are a couple things you need to check. First make sure that you have enabled it (View \> Onion Skin \> Previous). Second, make sure there is nothing underneath the current layer that could cover it, like a background layer. The onion skin is drawn underneath everything else in v0.6.4, so it will get covered if you have a layer that fills the whole screen.

If these don’t solve your issue, we ask that you please provide more details such as:

- What is the version of Pencil2D you’re currently using?
- What is your current OS? _ **Note** : To quickly answer 1 & 2 Go to the `Help Menu > About >` Press the `Copy to Clipboard` button and immediately press `CTRL + V` on your next reply so we can know this basic computer information._
- Can you please upload your project here or online and send us a link. You can use [wetransfer.com](http://wetransfer.com), google drive, dropbox, or you can drop the `PCLX` file directly on your reply box and upload it here so the developers can take a look at your file.
