Disabling effective innerShadow

Hi SCott,
I'm not sure how I did it, but it's working now.  I tried several things
before I saw your response but I think what did it was:
- move the rectangles out of the group
- remove the innershadow of the group
- put the rectangles back in the group
- set the innershadow of the group

Irrespective of what made it work, seems like there's a missing value of
the effects properties that makes them no inherit from their owner.  A bit
like the "plain" keyword for the textStyle property.  I think there's
another property that takes "none" as a key word for the same purpose but
can't remember what it is.
