Can I create text captions with a 2px stroke around the text?

Hi! Sorry, we don’t have a way to do this, but we do have a few alternatives to consider.

You can use a shadow to help your subtitles stand out from the background. Have a look at the following examples:

Hope that helps!

Thanks but I was able to solve it with a creative workaround that works for my need, I created 5 html clips, 4 of them white and 1 black, the black layer is in the front and each white layer is moved 3pixels each in a different directions. Took a while to figure it out and my json ends up being super long as I do this but this is good for now

Great work around, we’ll aim to add something like this to our existing templates/examples.
