Description:

I want to add a shadow effect around single item

What did I do:

I created my own style inheriting from your default style

<style name="MyPinView" parent="PinWidget.PinView"> <item name="android:elevation">4dp</item> <item name="android:translationZ">4dp</item> <item name="elevation">4dp</item> </style> but it's not working

Hello @akankshapaul048 the only way I got it working is by creating a MaterialShapeDrawable that draws the shape of the background I need and draws shadows also. more info here : https://medium.com/ackee/create-beautiful-shapes-with-materialshapedrawable-874dd46e0fd5
