7.6 Background R/G/B
These parameters control the colour of the text background. When the text layer is positioned smaller than full screen, the edges
of the text window becomes visible, and you will notice the background colour of the layer.
7.7 Background Transparency
This parameter controls how transparent the text background is.
To ensure text can be seen over any media, transparency can be set to 0, but this will completely block out what is behind the text
window. A more gentle effect is to set the transparency to something between 25% and 50%, giving some contrast for the letters,
but allowing the
media beneath to show through.
Setting transparency to 255 effectively removes the text background. In this case the choice of text colour is important since it
must be visible over the
media layers .
