What is the alternative in Harmony OS for shadow in TextView (Android)?

[SubhamKarmakar24]

Describe the query

I am writing a custom component that displays text on the screen using JAVA SDK. I want to set a shadow on the text that this component renders like setting shadowRadius, shadowColor, shadowDx, shadowDy and also get these values that have been set.

In Android, we have setShadowLayer(float, float, float, int), [getShadowColor()](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView#getShadowColor()), [getShadowDx()](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView#getShadowDx()), [getShadowDy()](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView#getShadowDy()) and [getShadowRadius()](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView#getShadowRadius()) method in TextView which does that for us.

What is the alternative for the above in Harmony OS?
