You can add a drop shadow to an element in Google Web Designer using the CSS Effects panel. Here's how:
-
Select the Element: Click on the element you want to apply the drop shadow to within your Google Web Designer document.
-
Open the CSS Effects Panel: If the CSS Effects panel isn't already open, go to Window > CSS Effects.
-
Add Filters: In the CSS Effects panel, click the "Add filters" button. This will reveal a list of available filters.
-
Select Drop Shadow: Choose "Drop shadow" from the list of filters.
-
Adjust Configuration Options: The Drop shadow filter will appear with several configuration options that control the appearance of the shadow. Adjust these settings to achieve your desired effect:
-
Horizontal offset: Specifies the horizontal distance the shadow is shifted from the element. A positive value moves the shadow to the right, and a negative value moves it to the left.
-
Vertical offset: Specifies the vertical distance the shadow is shifted from the element. A positive value moves the shadow down, and a negative value moves it up.
-
Blur radius: Controls the amount of blur applied to the shadow. A higher value creates a softer, more diffused shadow.
-
Spread radius: Determines how much the shadow expands beyond the element's boundaries. A positive value makes the shadow larger, and a negative value makes it smaller.
-
Color: Sets the color of the shadow. Click on the color swatch to open the color picker and choose a color. You can also adjust the shadow's opacity using the alpha channel in the color picker.
-
By adjusting these options, you can create a wide variety of drop shadow effects to enhance your design in Google Web Designer.
