Apply stroke on text

I saw that Corona doesn’t have a function to apply stroke on text so, do anyone know if there is a function that does this?

Thanks,

Nope. Text with Corona is unusually difficult and not very advanced from my experience.

However I have been able to get away with drop shadow by putting a darker version of the same text under the other and offsetting it by 2,2 [import]uid: 100299 topic_id: 35769 reply_id: 142286[/import]

What you can do is create a class that draws 2 texts, one with black color and other on top of that with your color then you get a shadowing effect. Hope this works, I use it in my apps.

 

EDIT: ouch answered too fast… same as previous post.

Might be overkill, or might be just what your looking for.  Have you checked out Text Candy from X-PRESSIVE?
