window-shadows

Add native shadows to your windows.

Platform support

• Windows: Yes, but shadows can't be turned off for a normal (decorated) window.
• macOS: Yes!
• Linux: No, shadows are controlled by the compositor installed on the user system and they can enable it for your app if they want.

Examples

• with winit:

  use winit::{event_loop::EventLoop, window::WindowBuilder};
  use window_shadows::set_shadow
  
  let event_loop = EventLoop::new();
  
  let window = WindowBuilder::new()
  .with_decorations(false)
  .build(&event_loop)
  .unwrap();
  
  #[cfg(any(target_os = "windows", target_os = "macos"))]
  set_shadow(&window, true).unwrap();
  

• with tauri:

  use window_shadows::set_shadow
  
  let window = app.get_window("main").unwrap();
  
  #[cfg(any(target_os = "windows", target_os = "macos"))]
  set_shadow(&window, true).unwrap();
