Android Question Set outlineProvider

I have a panel inside another transparent background panel.

I set the color of the background panel to Blue, just to see it as test.

But it doesnt look like a android eleveation shadow in any way ;-)
Instead of cheating, I would like to solve the real problem.
I cant add any other views.

cheating

There is nothing more fun than cheating ?

It "works", so do not waste time.

Its not about "works". its about perfection.
And it also doesnt work, because it doesnt look like a shadow in any way
But thanks for your try

Change its transparency (alpha).

Change its transparency (alpha).

Again,
i cant add another panel.
And even with alpha it doesnt look like a shadow because a shadow is falling off. And i want the global shadow angle from the android OS.
Just compare a real android elevation shadow with your method..

What's the purpose of the background panel? Can you not just make it larger so the shadow isn't cut off?
