<p><strong>Block Enhancements</strong> adds powerful design options to core Gutenberg blocks, so you don’t need to install heavy custom block libraries.<br />
It’s the easiest way to make your existing blocks more flexible and responsive while keeping your site fast and clean. All dynamic styles are rendered in the document head instead of inline styles.<br />
Unlike other similar plugins, this plugin is lightweight. It only loads what you need. You can enable or disable individual features per block type from the plugin’s settings page.</p>
<p><em>It works with all Gutenberg-ready themes, however, the with-icon feature uses the CSS pseudo <code>::before</code> to add icons with the <code>mask-image</code> CSS property. It may conflict with other plugins or themes that use the same technique.</em></p>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Add icons to buttons, headings, lists, navigation blocks (built-in 3000+ icon library or custom SVGs).</li>
<li>Set responsive dimensions: padding, margin, and block spacing per device.</li>
<li>Adjust responsive typography: font size, weight, line height, letter spacing per device.</li>
<li>Apply 2D transforms (translate, rotate, skew, scale) per device with hover styles.</li>
<li>Add box-shadow and text-shadow with hover state styles.</li>
<li>Customize text and background colors with hover styles.</li>
<li>Control responsive text alignment for Group, Columns, and Column blocks.</li>
<li>Use transitions for smooth hover style changes.</li>
<li>Define responsive CSS positions (relative, absolute, sticky, static) with custom offsets.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Common use cases</h3>

<p>Some WordPress themes style images frames and drop-shadows. The Image Shadow plugin lets you have such image styling without having to use a special theme. It automatically adds a soft, realistic drop-shadow to the jpeg images in your post content. You can choose the shadow’s depth and orientation. You can even add frame to the image. You can let the image grow a shadow or you can ensure that the shadowed image fits in the same space as the original.</p>
<p>Version 1.1 lets you add shadows to only those images with a given class attribute (the attribute must come after the src attribute). You can also have shadows with a transparent background by leaving the background colour blank.</p>
<p>The shadowed images are cached on your server for fast delivery which means that your PHP setup must allow the creation of new files. You must also have the GD library installed.</p>
<p><strong>NB</strong> I am aware that the settings screen, though functional, has problems in Internet Explorer.</p>
<h3>Version History</h3>
<ul>
<li>1.1.0
<ul>
<li>adds option to only shadow images with a specified class attribute</li>
<li>if the background colour is left blank the plugin will try to produce a transparent background (requires PHP >=4.3.2)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>1.0.b2
<ul>
<li>First public release</li>
</ul>
</li>
