Couldn't find anything in the search about this.

Are dropshadow filters supported? If I add a dropshadow to a textfield (in code), it doesn't show up on the iPhone.

So this seems to be the case: GPU rendering does not display any filters.

So I have to choose between good looking graphics (CPU) or a responsive / usable interface ( GPU )

You are allowed to use bitmaps, which can have their own drop shadow built in. That will work well with GPU.

I almost read your answer as if you meant to say like "create your bitmap in Photoshop, apply the Photoshop dropshadow filter, export to png and use that in your app"... haha, could you imagine that!  That would be the worst possible solution. (Dynamic sized images?)

Please tell me, what do you mean ?
