Worked example
X 0, Y 8, blur 24, spread 0, colour #111111 at 12% opacity produces box-shadow: 0px 8px 24px 0px rgba(17, 17, 17, 0.12). The preview square uses that shadow.
FAQ
- What do the four lengths mean?
- X and Y move the shadow, blur softens it, and spread grows or shrinks it before the blur.
- Can the shadow go up or left?
- Yes. Use a negative X or Y.
- How is opacity applied?
- The colour is written as rgba. 12% opacity is an alpha of 0.12.
