I recently added a materialistic "Add" button to my Android-primary React Native app. Despite using the elevation
style property for shadows on other elements, it seems to stop working when applied to an absolutely positioned element. I understand that this may be due to absolute positioning ignoring general layout rules, but I still believe a shadow should appear.
From what I gather, Android receives elevation while iOS uses different shadow properties.
This is what I'm aiming for:

However, no shadow appears once I set the element's style as absolute (in the bottom right corner).
Am I missing something, or is it simply not functional at the moment?
