Thread: White Shadow
View Single Post
Is it planned to add this "thick white shadow" in a future version ? (Is there some place where this "feature request" database is viewable, so I could check what the status of a feature request is, btw?)

Instead of linearly decreasing opacity of the shadow, it should be 100% up to a certain (very small) distance around the "0% blur shadow" of the object, and then a very fast gradient to 0% opacity. (see example)

I have no idea how difficult it would be to implement this, but I do think this is a very very usefull feature, as it makes text readable independently of the background color: the current shadow feature doesn't allow to read black text on black background (see example).
