# clearShadow

Turns shadows off.

## Declaration

```data
void clearShadow();
```

## Discussion

Discussion When you set a shadow color or shadow blur, and a shadow offset, all subsequent drawing operations include a shadow of the current color and blur, at the specified offset. The clearShadow method is a convenient way to turn shadows off. note: The clearShadow() method is not currently part of the HTML5 specification. It is supported in Safari and other Webkit-based browsers.
