Basic usage

Adding a drop shadow

Use the drop-shadow-{amount} utilities to add a drop shadow to an element.

Drop Shadow - 图1

  1. <div class="drop-shadow-md ...">
  2. <!-- ... -->
  3. </div>
  4. <div class="drop-shadow-lg ...">
  5. <!-- ... -->
  6. </div>
  7. <div class="drop-shadow-xl ...">
  8. <!-- ... -->
  9. </div>
  10. <div class="drop-shadow-2xl ...">
  11. <!-- ... -->
  12. </div>

Removing filters

To remove all of the filters on an element at once, use the filter-none utility:

  1. <div class="blur-md invert drop-shadow-xl md:filter-none">
  2. <!-- ... -->
  3. </div>

This can be useful when you want to remove filters conditionally, such as on hover or at a particular breakpoint.


Applying conditionally

Hover, focus, and other states

Tailwind lets you conditionally apply utility classes in different states using variant modifiers. For example, use hover:drop-shadow-xl to only apply the drop-shadow-xl utility on hover.

  1. <div class="drop-shadow-md hover:drop-shadow-xl">
  2. <!-- ... -->
  3. </div>

For a complete list of all available state modifiers, check out the Hover, Focus, & Other States documentation.

Breakpoints and media queries

You can also use variant modifiers to target media queries like responsive breakpoints, dark mode, prefers-reduced-motion, and more. For example, use md:drop-shadow-xl to apply the drop-shadow-xl utility at only medium screen sizes and above.

  1. <div class="drop-shadow-md md:drop-shadow-xl">
  2. <!-- ... -->
  3. </div>

To learn more, check out the documentation on Responsive Design, Dark Mode and other media query modifiers.


Using custom values

Customizing your theme

By default, Tailwind includes a handful of general purpose dropShadow utilities. You can customize these values by editing theme.dropShadow or theme.extend.dropShadow in your tailwind.config.js file.

tailwind.config.js

  1. module.exports = { theme: { extend: { dropShadow: { '3xl': '0 35px 35px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.25)', } } }}

Learn more about customizing the default theme in the theme customization documentation.

Arbitrary values

If you need to use a one-off drop-shadow value that doesn’t make sense to include in your theme, use square brackets to generate a property on the fly using any arbitrary value.

  1. <div class="drop-shadow-[0_35px_35px_rgba(0,0,0,0.25)]">
  2. <!-- ... -->
  3. </div>

Learn more about arbitrary value support in the arbitrary values documentation.
