There are no shadows on text displayed within the scoreboard overlay
The Bug:
There are no shadows on text displayed within the scoreboard overlay.
This is an issue because when the "Text Background Opacity" slider is set to "0%", the text can be quite difficult to read, so having a shadow displayed on all text within the scoreboard overlay would resolve this problem.
Steps to Reproduce:
- Navigate to your accessibility settings menu and set the "Text Background Opacity" slider to "0%" and the "Text Background" button to "Everywhere".
- Display some text on the scoreboard by using the commands provided below.
/scoreboard objectives add MC-240722 dummy
/scoreboard objectives setdisplay sidebar MC-240722
/scoreboard players set @s MC-240722 123456789
- Look closely at the text displayed within the scoreboard.
- Take note as to whether or not there are any shadows on text displayed within the scoreboard overlay.
Observed Behavior:
There are no shadows on text displayed within the scoreboard overlay.
Expected Behavior:
There would be shadows on text displayed within the scoreboard overlay.
