[Solved] Remove Panel Shadow In KDE 4.10

Hello all,
I just moved to KDE 4.10, and everything works smoothly.
I have just on little annoyance, I can't figure out how to get rid of the panel shadow.
It is going on top of the application window itself, and makes it harder to read content, I'm pretty sure this was not the case in 4.9.x.
Thanks, Adam.

That's the new intended behavior, as the shadows are now drawn by kwin and the panel is on top of all other windows. Try switching to another plasma theme with slimmer shadows

Or try this solution - it worked for me but on 4.9. The solution is made for totally transparent panel but i suppose you will find all needed info for your problem.
