To design a button in Figma that appears slightly pressed inward using an inner shadow, which settings combination is most effective?

hard📝 Scenario Q8 of 15

Figma - Images and Effects

AOffset X=-5, Offset Y=-5, Blur=15, Opacity=10%, Shadow color: light gray

BOffset X=10, Offset Y=10, Blur=20, Opacity=80%, Shadow color: black

COffset X=0, Offset Y=0, Blur=0, Opacity=100%, Shadow color: white

DOffset X=1, Offset Y=1, Blur=4, Opacity=30%, Shadow color: dark gray

Step-by-Step Solution

Solution:

Step 1: Understand Subtle Inner Shadow
A subtle pressed effect requires small offset and low opacity to avoid harsh shadows.
Step 2: Analyze Options
Offset X=1, Offset Y=1, Blur=4, Opacity=30%, Shadow color: dark gray uses small offset (1,1), moderate blur (4), low opacity (30%), and dark gray color, ideal for subtle depth.
Step 3: Eliminate Others
Offset X=10, Offset Y=10, Blur=20, Opacity=80%, Shadow color: black is too strong and harsh; C has no blur or offset; D uses negative offset and low opacity but light color, which won't simulate pressed effect well.
Final Answer:
Offset X=1, Offset Y=1, Blur=4, Opacity=30%, Shadow color: dark gray -> Option D
Quick Check:
Small offset + low opacity = subtle pressed look [OK]

Quick Trick: Use small offset and low opacity for subtle inner shadows [OK]
