public class ShadowLabel
extends Object
implements DrawingObj
This is another example implementation of the DrawingObj interface. This particular class enables a test string to be displayed on the drawing panel with a shadowing effect. For example, the following lines initializes an instance of this class and display a text string "Hello" on the drawing panel with blue text color and gray shadow at position (100, 100): 
	ShadowLabel helloLabel = new ShadowLabel("Hello");
	drawingPanel.addDrawingObj(helloLabel);
	helloLabel.move(100, 100);
	helloLabel.setColor(Color.blue);
	drawingPanel.redraw();
This object can be removed from the drawing panel by using the removeObj method from DrawingPanel.
