Modern UI design avoids dark, harsh shadows. Subtle shadows with 10-15% opacity and generous blur create clean, natural depth.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Blur radius softens and feathers the edges of the shadow; spread radius expands or contracts the physical footprint of the shadow before blur is applied.
