    \brief Generates a soft shadow behind the source item.

    The DropShadow effect blurs the alpha channel of the input, colorizes the
    result and places it behind the source object to create a soft shadow. The
    shadow's color can be changed using the \l {DropShadow::color}{color}
    property. The location of the shadow can be changed with the \l
    horizontalOffset and \l verticalOffset properties.

        \li Effect applied
    \row
        \li \image Original_butterfly.png
        \li \image DropShadow_butterfly.png
    \endtable

    The soft shadow is created by blurring the image live using a gaussian
    blur. Performing blur live is a costly operation. Fullscreen gaussian blur
    with even a moderate number of samples will only run at 60 fps on highend
    graphics hardware.

    When the source is static, the \l cached property can be set to allocate
    another buffer to avoid performing the blur every time it is drawn.

    \note This effect is available when running with OpenGL.

    \section1 Example

    The following example shows how to apply the effect.

        Radius defines the softness of the shadow. A larger radius causes the
        edges of the shadow to appear more blurry.

        The ideal blur is achieved by selecting \c samples and \c radius such
        that \c {samples = 1 + radius * 2}, such as:

        HorizontalOffset and verticalOffset properties define the offset for the
        rendered shadow compared to the DropShadow item position. Often, the
        DropShadow item is anchored so that it fills the source element. In this
        case, if the HorizontalOffset and verticalOffset properties are set to
        0, the shadow is rendered exactly under the source item. By changing the
        offset properties, the shadow can be positioned relatively to the source
        item.

        The values range from -inf to inf. By default, the properties are set to
        \c 0.
