shadowElevation not working

[xSharkM]

When i use shadowElevationPx to set a row shadow like android elevation methods,but not show ,i don't know why.

The following is example code.

@LayoutSpec
public class TestSpec {
  @OnCreateLayout
 static Component onCreateLayout(ComponentContext c) {
 return Row.create(c)
        .heightPx(600)
        .alignItems(YogaAlign.CENTER)
        .justifyContent(YogaJustify.CENTER)
        .child(Row.create(c)
            .alignItems(YogaAlign.CENTER)
            .justifyContent(YogaJustify.CENTER)
            .shadowElevationPx(29)
            .heightPx(300)
            .widthPx(300)
            .backgroundColor(Color.GREEN)
            .child(SolidColor.create(c)
                .heightPx(150)
                .widthPx(150)
                .color(Color.RED))
            .build())
        .build();
 }
}

then lithoView.setComponent(Test.create(c).build());

how to set green area shadow?

Hey @xSharkM, I am not sure that you can apply shadowElevation*() on a Component that does not support elevation at all!

How i can use elevation(shadows)? In my app i need to create TextBlock with shadow

[Wesely]

you can create a Column/Row with shadow res as background like

            Column.create(c)
                .heightDip(4f)
                .widthPercent(100f)
                .backgroundRes(R.drawable.toolbar_layout_shadow)
                .build()
