React-native: boxShadow

[oisinlavery]

Do you plan on supporting boxShadow directly in the Stylesheet object?
https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/flexbox.html

In regular native development, shadows are added to a UIView's layer, how do I interact with a layer using React? A code example would be great.

...and thanks for making this, loving it so far.

We definitely need this feature.

@nicklockwood, is this on your radar? Do you have any advice for the community about how it should be implemented in RCTViewManager?

not being able to enable shadow with stylesheet settings:

        shadowOffset:{
            width: 10,
            height: 10,
        },
        shadowColor: 'black',
        shadowOpacity: 1.0,

anything missing in above code?

[oisinlavery]

Those shadow settings seem to only apply to Text elements right now.

My mistake! This is working as described. Here is precise documentation:

@oisinlavery could you shade some light?

[wangii]

forget it. it appears to be a bug in iOS simulator 5s and above that setShadowOpacity not processed.

any plan on having box shadows on Android?

👍 for Android!

[winterbe]

For Android take a look at the elevation prop in <View>.

Unified shadows via boxShadow style would be super awesome! 👍
