This harness compares two looks for the ActionStrip pill and menu. Option A uses a drop shadow; Option D drops the shadow for a blurred surface with a hairline border. Only one menu can be open at a time, so the panels open in turn: use each card’s trigger, the Open buttons, or the auto-loop, which alternates the two for a minute. Flip direction applies to both, and a readout shows the last action clicked.
