FAQ

What do the shadow values mean?

Horizontal offset moves the shadow left/right, vertical moves up/down, blur controls softness, spread controls size, and color sets the shadow color.

What is an inset shadow?

An inset shadow appears inside the element rather than outside, creating a pressed or recessed effect.

How many shadow layers can I use?

CSS supports unlimited shadow layers. This tool lets you add multiple. Common designs use 1-3 layers for subtle, realistic depth.
