I don’t understand why there is shadow present on the text for the ‘Start Over’ and ‘Info’ buttons, when from what I can see in the code the shadow should only apply to the background. Image in the book does not show a shadow on the text itself. Can anyone help?

Fixed it. Final closing bracket was after button background, not the shadow modifier, meaning shadow modifier was applying to all elements of the button
