Easy Drop Shadows on Text in Silverlight 3(pagebrooks.com)

submitted by pbrookspbrooks(775) 2 years, 10 months ago

Before Silverlight 3, you had to do perform some less-than-ideal tricks to achieve a drop shadow effect on your text. In fact, the most decent trick I could find had to rely on the TextBox control and not the TextBlock control since you cannot re-template a TextBlock control. But even that technique was not optimal since you couldn’t get a truly smooth shadow.
