This is what I get when I compile your code: https://i.stack.imgur.com/Kv1YN.png Is this what you want? — samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz, Jan 14 '19 at 14:25
how do you compile your document? pdflatex, xelatex or something else? Which version of tikz do you have? — samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz, Jan 14 '19 at 14:35
XeLaTeX, version used for tikz as (d:/texlive/2017/texmf-dist/tex/generic/pgf/frontendlayer/tikz/tikz.code.tex Package: tikz 2015/08/07 v3.0.1a (rcs-revision 1.151) — Rajesh N, Jan 14 '19 at 14:37
I see. I can reproduce the problem with xelatex, but it works fine with pdflatex and lualatex. Is switching to either lualatex or pdflatex an option for you? — samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz, Jan 14 '19 at 14:41
We using XeLaTeX for some special purpose, is there any other option to get required output? — Rajesh N, Jan 14 '19 at 14:45
I think this is really a problem of xelatex. Something similar is also reported here: https://github.com/josephwright/beamer/issues/492 — samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz, Jan 14 '19 at 14:50
Is there other option to set like this in TiKZ or drawing package? — Rajesh N, Jan 14 '19 at 14:53
I think if you use the default shadows provides in tikz you will likely have the same problem, but maybe some tikz wizard will see this question and can suggest a better course of action — samcarter_is_at_topanswers.xyz, Jan 14 '19 at 14:59
When we "drop shadow" instead of "blur shadow" output came, but blur not working. — Rajesh N, Jan 14 '19 at 15:01
@samcarter I get the upper (=correct?) output, i,e, this when compiling this with xelatex on my updated TeXLive 2018 distribution. Are you saying you do not get this with xelatex. Rajesh N : could you just update your TeXLive installation, i.e. switch to TeXLive 2019, and try again? — , Jan 14 '19 at 15:22
Thank you spending my query reply, we will check and update you. — Rajesh N, Jan 14 '19 at 15:35
@RajeshN: Why do you use code from my answer https://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/468709/tikz-drawing-output without attribution? This is outrageous! — , Jan 14 '19 at 15:41
