A drop shadow is a great design element for various pieces of content, and combination of content. Theme developers were able to use this feature since WordPress 6.2, and there is a Developer Blog tutorial on adding shadow support for themes.
With WordPress 6.5, content creators and no-code site builders can rejoice, as they too can now apply shadows to their blocks. For now, this feature is enabled for four blocks: Button, Image, Columns, and Column.
This first version offers five options for the drop shadow. There are no color, angle, spread, or more blur settings available.
