Outlining Text
Hi! I am working on a project in Storyline 360 (pc) where the text overlaps a corner graphic. It makes the text a bit hard to read, so I am trying to outline the text in white so it will stand out a bit more. (reminiscent of Wordart in MS products.) I have looked everywhere I can think of and all I can seem to accomplish is to outline the text BOX. Is there a way to outline just the text?
Thanks!

Not in Storyline. You can do it in PPT and then Copy and paste it in Storyline. However, the text will be pasted in as a graphic. So you cannot edit the text in SL.
If you wanted to play with a new tool, you could give Vecteezy Free SVG Editor Random Vector a try. Think of it as a "lite" version of Adobe Illustrator:
You could also duplicate the text and make the bottom a different color and align it so it looks like a high contrast drop shadow.
Some people create slightly transparent ovals with soft edges to create a subtle effect and the visual separation you want.
