I have the following text box:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{fancybox}

\definecolor{ShadowColor}{RGB}{30,150,190}

\makeatletter
\newcommand\Cshadowbox{\VerbBox\@Cshadowbox}
\def\@Cshadowbox#1{%
  \setbox\@fancybox\hbox{\fbox{#1}}%
  \leavevmode\vbox{%
    \offinterlineskip
    \dimen@=\shadowsize
    \advance\dimen@ .5\fboxrule
    \hbox{\copy\@fancybox\kern.5\fboxrule\lower\shadowsize\hbox{%
      \color{ShadowColor}\vrule \@height\ht\@fancybox \@depth\dp\@fancybox \@width\dimen@}}%
    \vskip\dimexpr-\dimen@+0.5\fboxrule\relax
    \moveright\shadowsize\vbox{%
      \color{ShadowColor}\hrule \@width\wd\@fancybox \@height\dimen@}}}
\makeatother

\begin{document}

\colorlet{ShadowColor}{gray}

\Cshadowbox{String1 = String2}

\end{document}

How should I do to customize it equal to the following figure:

    Will all the boxes contain code listings? Oct 10, 2015 at 16:09
  • Hello Gonzalo Medina, in fact must enter a String with the text very large identical to the figure with the Boolean operators in bold. Can you help me? Oct 10, 2015 at 18:40

No shadowbox solution (admitted) but I suggest the tcolorbox package and its extreme bunch of options

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{xcolor}
\usepackage{fancybox}

\usepackage[most]{tcolorbox}

\definecolor{ShadowColor}{RGB}{30,150,190}

\makeatletter
\newcommand\Cshadowbox{\VerbBox\@Cshadowbox}
\def\@Cshadowbox#1{%
  \setbox\@fancybox\hbox{\fbox{#1}}%
  \leavevmode\vbox{%
    \offinterlineskip
    \dimen@=\shadowsize
    \advance\dimen@ .5\fboxrule
    \hbox{\copy\@fancybox\kern.5\fboxrule\lower\shadowsize\hbox{%
      \color{ShadowColor}\vrule \@height\ht\@fancybox \@depth\dp\@fancybox \@width\dimen@}}%
    \vskip\dimexpr-\dimen@+0.5\fboxrule\relax
    \moveright\shadowsize\vbox{%
      \color{ShadowColor}\hrule \@width\wd\@fancybox \@height\dimen@}}}
\makeatother

\begin{document}



\colorlet{ShadowColor}{gray}

\begin{tcolorbox}[enhanced jigsaw,sharp corners, drop fuzzy shadow=ShadowColor]
String1 = String2
\end{tcolorbox}

And as listing box: 



   \begin{tcblisting}{listing only,enhanced jigsaw,sharp corners, drop fuzzy shadow=ShadowColor}
String1 = String2

\end{tcblisting}


\end{document}

  • Hello Christian Hupfer, that's exactly what I needed, but how should I do to remove the gray background of the text box? The rest is perfect. Oct 10, 2015 at 17:59

    @ricardoramos: You can use the colback=white option (replace the colorname by your favourite one) in the tcolorbox or tcblisting options. (Sorry for the late answer -- I was at the cinema ;-)

  • Thank​ you so much for your help Christian Hupfer, now it's all working! Oct 10, 2015 at 21:04
  • Key point for future readers. Don't bother with the big markup in the preamble. You just require \usepackage{tcolorbox} and the part after the begin document that uses tcolorbox. Other preamble markup is from OP's original failed effort to us fancybox.
