I am uploading a project I need help with, I am trying to get my animated blood flow sorted and I have a problem thats doing my head in! First of all forget about the menu/heading they’re just place holders also forget about colours - done purposely to get animation correct before changing colours to corporate ones. It just helps me with visibility. So what the problem? When the blood “drops” down there’s like a shadow box on the container which I have tried to get rid of unsuccessfully but can not fathom what causing it. I am trying to recreate an old site ([https://dontbeaclot.co.uk](https://dontbeaclot.co.uk)) done in RW8 which is way out of date and is my first project I have moved over to Elements Hosting. Once I have cracked tis then I am ready to try my first upload! So can anybody help point where I get rid of my shadow I would be very grateful!

Hi Paul, In reveal components, did you try to choose Animation \> slide instead of Animation \> fade ? ---

The `reveal` function isn’t working for me in accordions. I use the slide effect. Any ideas? ---

Hard to say without seeing your project (or page). Can you share a sample in a test document on Element Cloud? We can then take a look and advise 🙂 ---
