Panel UI Controls

  • Angle: the angle of the shadow (1 - 359)
  • Scale: the length of the shadow (1 - 100). It's a relative value based upon the object size and it varies from shadow angle. Sharp angles make longer shadows.
  • Blur: shadow dispersion amount in pixels (1 - 100)
  • Opacity: the opacity of the shadow (1 - 100)
  • Color: the color of the shadow. Usually, outside on a sunny day, shadows tend to have a bluish tint.
  • Sun Position: It's a feature that calculates the angle of the shadow based on the relative position of the object from the Sun (point created using the Pen tool in Photoshop).
  • Auto-update: triggers the shadow creation process when one of the above parameters is changed. It makes it easier to get the desired look of the shadow.
  • Bonus feature: Shadow parameters are saved in the current session of Photoshop even if the panel is closed and re-opened later.
