List of setting items

ItemDescription
Outline Adds Outline outside the material. You can adjust color, thickness, and Connect outlines with the same color. Thickness can be adjusted from 1 to 300. When multiple outlines exist, only the outermost outline is affected.
Shadow Adds Shadow to the material. You can adjust color, horizontal position, vertical position, and blur.

Check points

  • Material decoration supports only Outline and Shadow.
  • Text Line and Background are not shown in the material Decoration menu.
  • Thicker Outline expands outside the material.
  • When multiple materials, text, or images are close together, “Connect outlines with the same color” can make overlapping outlines look natural.

When you are in trouble

If decoration makes the material look too heavy, reduce the Outline thickness or Shadow blur.
