Remarks

The ISymbolShadow interfaces is provided to set the symbol used by frame decorations to draw drop shadows under frame elements. See also IFrameDecoration.

ISymbolShadow inherits from IShadow and gives you control over the FillSymbol used to draw the shadow and the amount of CornerRounding of the shadow. The default value for CornerRounding is 0 which gives a square shadow. A value of 100 gives a round shadow.

Backgrounds, borders and shadows of frame elements are managed in ArcMap on the Frame tab in the Properties of frame elements.
