For new code, it should be considered as an alternative to using Qt Graphical Effects. The DropShadow effect blurs the alpha channel of the input, colorizes the result and places it behind the source object to create a soft shadow. The shadow's color can be changed using the \l {DropShadow::color}{color} property. The location of the shadow can be changed with the \l horizontalOffset and \l verticalOffset properties. \table \header \li Source \li Effect applied \row \li \image Original_butterfly.png {Colorful butterfly graphic} \li \image DropShadow_butterfly.png {Butterfly with drop shadow behind it} \endtable The soft shadow is created by blurring the image live using a gaussian blur. Performing blur live is a costly operation. Fullscreen gaussian blur with even a moderate number of samples will only run at 60 fps on highend graphics hardware. When the source is static, the \l cached property can be set to allocate another buffer to avoid performing the blur every time it is drawn. \note This effect is available when running with OpenGL. \section1 Example The following example shows how to apply the effect. \snippet DropShadow-example.qml example */ Item { id: root DropShadowBase { id: dbs anchors.fill: parent } /*!
