    Hi,

    I am trying to replicate my font outline look with UITK. When using the outline feature, it rounds the corners and renders in front of the font. However, in UGUI, using normal text and outline component it renders with sharp corners and behind the font.

    Should I assume that I cannot replicate UGUI's style and that if I wanted this style I need to put a square visual element behind my font?

    Thanks!

    The above is a currently known issue related to the geometry of the text not expanding to make room for the Outline, Shadow or Glow when that becomes available via UITK.

    Is this outline feature available in the UI Builder? I couldn't find it there.

    Just wondering if there is an estimated time when this will be fixed? I downloaded beta 1 and it still has the issue.

    Thanks!
