iOS - view inside stackview not showing up shadow

Question

I have designed popup view using UIStackView. I'm trying to shadow to "Alert View" as showing in the picture. Parameters for shadow are shown at the right side.

But it is not showing shadow after I run code.

But if I design this popup without UIStackView, it shows up the shadow.

What is reason behind this?

Your AlertView has clipToBounds ticked. Thats the reason why you dont see shadow added to AlertView. Uncheck it to work properly

O/P with clipToBounds ticked

**O/P after unchecking ClipToBounds **

EDIT:

Though am not sure, the IBInspectable you set up for properties like Shadow Radius might not be set up correctly, please try setting shadow programmatically

    self.alertView.layer.shadowRadius = 3
    self.alertView.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 2, height: 4)
    self.alertView.layer.shadowOpacity = 2
    self.alertView.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.black.cgColor

If this works then you can solve the issue with IBInspectables of yours

But unchecking "clipToBounds" is also not working in my case. – Pramod More Jun 14 '18 at 11:25
@pramod-more : did you uncheck it on aletView ? Not on stackView! – Sandeep Bhandari Jun 14 '18 at 11:27
Yes, unchecked on both. – Pramod More Jun 14 '18 at 11:27
@pramod-more : Finally I believe shadow radius is your IBInspectable you added I dont know how is it set up can u try adding shadow programmatically ? – Sandeep Bhandari Jun 14 '18 at 11:29
@pramod-more : or else paste the IBInspectable code you have for various properties like shadow Radius, offset etc – Sandeep Bhandari Jun 14 '18 at 11:32
@pramod-more : am glad it did :) That means your IBInspectable set up must be having a issue :) Check that and then u can remove the code :) Happy coding – Sandeep Bhandari Jun 14 '18 at 11:35
