Design Guidance
Layered Shadows
Modern UI design often uses multiple shadow layers for a softer, more realistic look. Try combining a tight dark shadow with a broad lighter one.
Inset Shadows
Toggle the 'Inset' option to make the shadow appear inside the element, which is great for creating button presses or input field effects.
