If I understand what you are asking for, look at the CALayer methods:

setShadowOpacity:
setShadowOffset:
setShadowColor:

And note that you can call these on the UIView's layer, e.g.

[[myView layer] setShadowOpacity:0.5];

(Note that you will need to have imported QuartzCore to get access to
this functionality.)
