Need help on CSS for gnome-3.20 GTK3

Hello All

I want to increase and darken shadow of windows in gnome 3.20. I don't know much of css, but after lot of browsing, I came across this.

Code:

$ cat ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css

window {

  box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px black;

}

Now, I get beautiful shadows for windows. But not all windows are getting that css. Some windows are getting shadows and some others don't (default shadow).

What code I have to put so that all windows will have shadows.

Screenshot attached:

With shadow - gedit window
Without shadow - vlc player window (not getting custom shadow on this. The one visible is default one)

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks.

vlc uses qt as a toolkit, and not gtk3.

if you want the same shadows for ALL windows, you need to
a) use a compositor or window manager that has that feature
b) disable that sort of stuff for gtk3
