<table><thead><tr><th width="216">Property</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong><code>hidden</code></strong></td><td><p>Boolean: <code>true</code>, <code>false</code>. </p><p><strong>Hide the current element if true.</strong></p></td></tr></tbody></table>

### Shadow <a href="#shadow" id="shadow"></a>

Shadows can be added to all components.

| Properties            | Description                                               |
| --------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
| **shadow\_color**     | String: **6-8 digits hexa shadow color**                  |
| **shadow\_blur**      | Number: **Blur in pixels.** Must be >= 0                  |
| **shadow\_offset\_x** | Number: **Horizontal offset in pixels** (can be negative) |
| **shadow\_offset\_y** | Number: **Vertical offset in pixels** (can be negative)   |

*Component specificities*:

* **Text**: If the background color is enabled, shadow is activated to the background
* **Button**: Shadows can only be configured on the background from now.

#### **Example:**

| <p><code>shadow\_color: "#00000080"</code><br><code>shadow\_blur: 3</code><br><code>shadow\_offset\_x: 4</code><br><code>shadow\_offset\_y: 3</code></p> | ![](/files/MAgefADRytEO2XcYiput) |
