Description

I couldn’t find an easy way to add a border to a "title" layer text when using a JSON setting file.
Although you can do it with a canvas function, it would be great if it could also be done via two simple parameters: one for border color and one for border size.

Adding a black border is a common use case for adding text that contrasts with any image or background.

Research direction

Start by tracing how title layers are configured from the JSON setting file and how their text is rendered through the canvas function. Add support for border color and border size parameters, then verify that a title can display a black border over an image or background.
