More text effects

[bergson_45]

hello in the next update to shotcut I would like if there were more text effect such as

1. drop shadows on text
2. a Gradient stroke on the text and on the just the text
3. and when you use a black stroke it looks gray?
4. also on the stroke can you guys please fix it where the stroke looks a bit faded and doesnt look that good heres a example
   (also why there is a picture is so that you can see the shotcut stroke)
   
   
   
   hopefully this shows enough?

drop shadows on text

This is on the road map:

Bring the opacity of the Outline to 255. By default it’s at 170

Use 2 filters instead of one.
Top filter: Font color → Alpha channel : 0, Outline color → Alpha channel: 255

When used with a white background.
No fading, solid black color outline as intended.
