This function enables you to change the fill color for text and the solid filled
transparency.
The transparency can be changed by moving the [Transparency] bar. The
transparency will increase or decrease, as the value increases or decreases.
By pressing the "+" button, you can add any optional colors.
With this function, color, transparency and thickness of the outline of text can be
changed.
<TIPS>

If the outline thickness value is too large, the outline may not be arranged along the
font shape, resulting in the collapsing of the shape.
This function gives a drop-shadow to text. Using this function, you can specify a
shadow color, transparency, position, distance and blurring.
Color: Using this function enables you to change a shadow color.
Transparency: This function changes a shadow transparency.
Position: With this function, you can change a position to which the shadow is
applied. By default, it is set to the lower-right corner.
Distance: With this function, you can change a distance over which the shadow
is applied. As the value increases or decreases, the distance increases or the
object comes nearer to the center.
Blur: As the value increases, the level of blurring increases.
<TIPS>

When text with a shadow is moved, part of the shadow may seem to disappear
from the screen. However, such shadows appear when the text is printed out.

When shadow is applied to a text placed over an object with RGB=255, the area
around the blurring section of the shadow may become white.
