GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 125218
Text tool: Support different style for border vs. fill
Last modified: 2004-04-01 23:44:57 UTC
This is about the text tool in the 1.3 series. I don't know if FreeType would allow this, but some very nice feature from a Windows application I used previously, was that you could set different color and thickness for the font outline, as opposed to the "fill". There's a rather bad example at AbiWord bugzilla (see the url field) that explains the idea.
That has of course been considered already and with the new stroke functionality it's actually so simple that it might even make it's way into 2.0 still.
