  Final Report PROJECT ABSTRACTION The shadow of objects in LibreOffice is just a copy of the original object without any effects. It has attributes for transparency, angle, distance, and color. Currently, users have the ability to enable the shadow for the object, change its color, its angle, distance behind the object, and its transparency. The main target of the project is the addition of a new feature that blurs the shadow of any given shape. In order to add this feature, a blur attribute is added to the shadow’s attributes. This attribute is used to change the amount of blurring that is to be applied to the shadow. In addition, the shadow’s files are updated to support/include information about the new blur feature. Finally, the UI is extended to control the value of the blur through a spin button which is added in the shadow sidebar.                                                     [1]
