Real Shadow — Module that casts photorealistic shadows
Perfect for eye-catching demos and landing pages.
Works in any browser supporting CSS box-shadow property.
Real Shadow registers itself as CommonJS module, AMD module or jQuery plugin (it depends on your environment).
If there is no CommonJS, AMD or jQuery, Real Shadow registers itself in the global namespace.
- now Real Shadow works with CommonJS, AMD and jQuery
- removed jQuery dependency
- possibility to update shadows during/after jQuery animations
- possibility to set custom shadow length
- inset shadows
- optimizations
- corrected shadow positions
- chaining support
$(selector).realshadow(); // options are optional
$(selector).realshadow({
followMouse: false, // default: true
pageX: x, // x coordinate of the light source
pageY: y // y coordinate of the light source
c: { // shadow color
r: 1, // red channel for shadow
g: 1, // green channel for shadow
b: 1, // blue channel for shadow
}
});
realshadow(elements); // options are optional
realshadow(elements, options); // options example listed above
To specify different colors for each element, you can use "rel" attribute:
<span rel="r"></span>
<span rel="g"></span>
<span rel="b"></span>
<span rel="rg"></span>
<span rel="gb"></span>
<span rel="br"></span>
<span rel="rgb"></span>
$('span').realshadow();
$(selector).realshadow({
inset: true // default: false
});
// before: apply Real Shadow to elements:
$(selector).realshadow(/* options, if needed */);
// update shadows during jQuery animation, i.e. each animation step:
$(selector).animate(/* animated properties */, {step: $.fn.realshadow.update});
// update shadows after jQuery animation is over:
$(selector).animate(/* animated properties */, $.fn.realshadow.update);
If you update shadows during jQuery animation, you don't need to update shadows after jQuery animation is over.
$(selector).realshadow({
length: 5 // default is 7
});
var realshadow = require('realshadow');
realshadow(document.getElementsByClassName('someClass'));
realshadow(document.getElementsByTagName('li'), options);
require(['realshadow'], function(realshadow) {
realshadow(document.getElementsByClassName('someClass'));
realshadow(document.getElementsByTagName('li'), options);
});
