[PyQt] How to get box shadows in qlabels?

[Maurizio Berti]

Stylesheet features on Qt are limited, as it only supports a subset of CSS
properties (not unlike the subset of HTML for rich text); as you have
already found out, there's no box-shadow property. They are useful for
specific design purposes, can be very useful for small and easy
modifications to the widget appearance (and some other things, since they
support qproperties), and can be used to do fancy tricks without manual
painting and/or QStyle overrides, but be careful: some widgets (usually
composite widgets, like spinboxes, combo, sliders) require to be fully
implemented in the stylesheet, otherwise they won't work.

That said, I became curious about the neumorphism topic, and I decided to
give it a try, mostly because I never created a full QGraphicsEffect on my
own.

I published the answer on StackOverflow, since I believe it could be useful
to others too.

You can see the result in the attached image, while the full description on
how it was implemented is on the link.

Cheers,
Maurizio
