Shadows, gradients & overlays

These tokens add depth and visual richness, and modules reference them by name.

Shadows

Token Use
Light shadow Subtle lift for small elements
Regular shadow Standard card shadow
Dark shadow Strong, prominent shadow

Set the exact offsets and colors in Theme Settings. Modules offer these as a shadow choice, plus a None option.

Gradients

Three gradient tokens are available:

  • Gradient 1: deep navy to purple.
  • Gradient 2: purple to lavender.
  • Gradient 3: dark navy, vertical.

Modules that support gradient backgrounds or gradient text offer these three, plus a Custom option.

Image and video overlays

Six overlay tokens sit over background images and videos to keep text readable:

  • Overlays 1 and 2: primary color at high and medium strength. Overlay 2 is the common default.
  • Overlay 3: secondary color, subtle.
  • Overlay 4: tertiary color, subtle.
  • Overlays 5 and 6: soft white gradient fades.

Keep text readable

On image or video backgrounds, keep an overlay so titles and descriptions stay legible.
