SVG Drop Shadow Effects

In SVG, to show the drop shadow effects, <feOffset> element is used. To do this effect, take an SVG graphic and move it a little bit in the x-y plane.

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>


<svg height="250" width="250">
  <defs>
    <filter id="p1" x="0" y="0" width="200%" height="200%">
      <feOffset result="offOut" in="SourceGraphic" dx="20" dy="20" />
      <feGaussianBlur result="blurOut" in="offOut" stdDeviation="10" />
      <feBlend in="SourceGraphic" in2="blurOut" mode="normal" />
    </filter>
  </defs>
  <rect width="90" height="90" stroke="blue" stroke-width="3" fill="purple" filter="url(#p1)" />
  </svg>

</body>
</html>

Explanation

The id attribute of <filter> defines a unique name for the pattern.
The filter attribute of the <rect> element is used to link the element to the "p1" filter.
