Frequently asked questions

What does text-shadow control?

It adds a shadow behind text using x-offset, y-offset, blur-radius and color, in that order.

Can I add more than one shadow?

Yes. Comma-separate multiple shadows to build effects like outlines, neon glows or layered depth.

How do I make a glow effect?

Use a zero offset with a noticeable blur and a bright color, optionally stacking two for a stronger glow.

Does text-shadow affect readability?

Heavy shadows reduce legibility. Keep blur and offset modest, and ensure enough contrast between text and background.

Is it the same as box-shadow?

No. text-shadow applies to the glyphs themselves and has no spread value, while box-shadow applies to the element's box.

Is any data uploaded?

No. The CSS is generated locally in your browser.
