Abstract
A method and system for temporally adjusting an application window drop shadow on a display. In that regard, the rendered visual aspects of the drop shadow with respect to the application window are based on the passage of time. In one implementation, a method is provided. The method includes determining, by a processing device, a local time of day. In response to determining the local time of day, a drop shadow is caused to be displayed in a visual association to an application window. This drop shadow is adjacent to at least one edge of the application window, and is positioned with respect to the at least one edge at an angle indicative of the local time of day.
