I’m trying to click the X button but it’s not working.

Now this button is responsible for closing a tab or tabs (depending on the one you are closing), and motion status has been successfully redesigned and moved to an automated version.

Also, closing and opening can be done using the `Backquote key during editing in the studio.

Old Response

Did you think it was the X button? :slight_smile:

You made a little mistake, this is a motion status icon. What is it for? It sets the type of movement of the plugin, try clicking the mouse wheel button on the plugin and you will see that the status of the movement will change.

Where is it useful? This is useful when moving UI elements, because we all sometimes faced the fact that when moving the UI element, the wrong one was moved that we needed. To move an element using UI Shadows, select any UI element and click the left mouse button on the UI Shadows window, then move the UI element using UI Shadows without unnecessary complications.

Slight issue. I don’t believe this works with GUIS where the Size is in Scale. Only using Offset. And also, when selecting a UI it gets locked to my mouse and moves with my mouse.

Thank you for informing me, I will try to improve the algorithm in the next updates!

Fixed, now any size is supported. Also, we no longer support moving the UI together, as it made some users uncomfortable.

Old Responce

Thanks for your activity, the fix patch for Size has already been released! I also want to note that moving the UI with the mouse is a built-in function that allows you to conveniently move hard-to-reach interface elements.


is there anyway that you could put the shadow into the frame, not outside?

I’m seriously scratching my head and trying to figure out why Roblox does not has this as an official feature, These shadows look amazing and definitely add depth and style to GUI’s.

I approve this resource 10/10

Unfortunately, this is not possible in Roblox Studio, if you put a shadow inside, it will in any case be on top of the object, not from below.

Thanks for the support, VSC!!!

Few, I at least got it for free, also you got a great plugin here


Uuhhhh why did you think that is me? That is my evil twin, not me
