Text drop shadow or glow
Having trouble applying a drop shadow or glow effect to text (NOT the text box) that I am laying over an imgae. There appears to be no way todo this in Storyline. Help please.
Welcome to E-Learning Heroes, Guy!
If you're not applying this effect to a text box, how are you placing the text over the image? Have you tried highlighting the text itself and applying the shadow (from the formatting menu - not the shape effects)? Try that and then preview the project. Does it show up now?
If you haven't already, you could try placing an object, or button over the image. Make the background and border for the object transparent.
You could also do this with a caption box - I believe the text applied is automatically shadowed.
If you still have trouble with this, can you share a screenshot or the .STORY file? I'd be happy to take a look and see if I can help.
Thanks and welcome again!
