Misc styles cover caption effects that do not belong to a single text layer.
Following
Following controls the opacity of upcoming words before they are spoken. Enable the checkbox to show upcoming words, then adjust the value to make them more or less visible.
Set the value lower for subtle previews, or higher when you want upcoming words to stay readable.
Drop Shadow
Drop Shadow adds a shadow behind caption text. Use it to improve readability against busy video backgrounds.
When enabled, you can adjust:
- Color: The shadow color.
- Opacity: How transparent the shadow is.
- Distance: How far the shadow sits from the text.
- Angle: The direction of the shadow in degrees.
- Softness: How blurred the shadow edge appears.
