Add or edit borders and shadows in the visual editor.
Borders can help highlight content, create separation, or add design consistency across your site. You can modify existing borders — like those on buttons — or apply new styles, colors, and shadows to any element.
Change an element's border
In the visual editor:
- Select an element
- Go to Borders in the Changes panel
- Modify the style options, add a border color, and/or apply a drop shadow
Border style options
The default unit is pixels, but you can click px to choose a different unit type (e.g., % or em).
- Style — choose from solid, dashed, dotted, and other visual styles
- Width — change the thickness of the border
- Radius — choose square corners (i.e., 0 px) or rounded corners (e.g., 6 px)
Border color options
You can apply a background color using:
- Color value — click the Color field, then enter an RGB, CMYK, or HEX value
- Color picker — click the color square, then choose a color or click the Eyedropper to sample one from the page
Pro tip
Consider pairing a border color with a complementary or contrasting background color.
Shadow options
You can enter box shadow values in the Shadow field to apply a drop shadow. Learn how to apply shadows.
