Unsolved How to change size of QGraphicsDropShadowEffect
-
Is there a way to change the size of
QGraphicsDropShadowEffect
? The Size is the same as the image it's attached to just with an offset. What I would like to achieve is something like this:Left is plain
QGraphicsDropShadowEffect
, the shadow is below and right because there is an offset of 5px on x and y. On the right there is shadow on all sides, currently I can't figure out how to achieve this.
An option is probably overwriting thedraw
method but how to draw this blurry shadow? -
@dporobic Hi. Maybe using setBlurRadius and setOffset work, like the following code:
QGraphicsDropShadowEffect *bodyShadow = new QGraphicsDropShadowEffect; bodyShadow->setBlurRadius(30); bodyShadow->setColor(QColor(0,0,0,160)); bodyShadow->setOffset(0); ui->label_2->setGraphicsEffect(bodyShadow);

@nanor not a bad idea, that's what I get:
Could be a bit darker I guess. I have tried playing around with the radius but that seems the best result I could get.
Any other alternative?

@dporobic to get a darker shadow, you can increase the forth element of QColor (which is the opacity)
-
@nanor that on the screenshot is already the maximum.
