Crystal Reports: Box and ShadowSee also: Box and Line
|
| Place one box on top of the other but offset them by having the lighter one positioned slightly lower and slightly to the right of the other. Have the lighter colored box positioned in front of the darker box, the darker one behind as a shadow. The detailed steps are to draw a box around your text or image and round it. Format the box to color the line with a medium color. In this example, it is a custom color of mid grey. A key step is to color-fill the box with exactly the same color as the box line. To help you do this, you can use the Red, Green, Blue numbers on the bottom right.
