Text shadow for Text Background and Action Bar Background are missing. This makes reading the text difficult on some cases
Steps to Reproduce:
Set Text Background Opacity (currently not working due to MCPE-79331) or Action Bar Background Opacity to 0% (for more noticeable)
Observed Results:
Text shadows are missing
Expected Results:
The text shadows are showing
There is an option to remove the background in Settings > Accessibility, but it currently does not work. This issue is being tracked at MCPE-79331, so I am resolving this ticket as a duplicate.

Does the text also overlap over the hotbar? because it does that for me
This bug occurs Windows 10 Edition as well.
@SoolaBlaidd Issue which is you mentioned, tracking in
MCPE-79566.It works for /title titles and subtitles apparently, but doesn't work for:
Java Edition has an additional toggle to set whether the option should apply only to chat background, or to all these additional things (if not, they have default backgrounds)
It also affects 1.16.0
This is very annoying when having enchanted items. This transparent background takes up much of your screen.
Affects 1.16.1
Enchanted items often overlay with your hotbar
I politely ask the developers to resolve this bug. The black borders are really ugly when we touch the items.
i may look boring and probably this comment of mine will not help at all. but is it really that hard to fix this bug? if anyone has an answer to that, please answer me.
Affects 1.16.40
Affects 1.16.100.55
Affects 1.16.200.53
affects 1.17.20.22
1.16.100 too
affects 1.16.210
Affects 1.16.210.53 beta
Affects 1.16.210.54 beta
@[Mod] tryashtar, It isn't supposed to affect Chat background, Mob nameplate background, and Scoreboard sidebar background. This bug affects forced background text added in the 1.16.0.63 beta.
Affects 1.16.210.55 beta
Affects 1.16.210.58 beta
Affects 1.16.220 release
I tried to see whether this bug is fixed. It is not yet fixed. On my android, this even affects all the versions of 1.17 betas.
It's so strange that this bug has been around for such a long time now when it is seemingly so simple. But yeah, it still exists in the official release of 1.17 part 1.
I got good news for this bug its partially fixed in 1.17.10 1/2 worlds I load or reload its fixed in
Affects 1.18.0.21
This really bother me, expecially with enchanted items and Shulker Boxes. They already covered half of the screen, but now is way worse
Still the same problem. Touching item in hotbar pops up description with dark gray background that can't be changed with accessibility 'text background opacity'. This is REALLY annoying.
Bedrock pe Android 1.18.32
Still present in 1.19.1. Wish it was fixed already as it’s so ugly and takes up so much screenspace with enhancements especially on switch handheld
I know this is a small thing but please fix this. I'm so tired of the text taking up half the screen. I can't see through it because my sword has so many enchantments!
Although this bug had been fixed for the Hotbar tooltips, it still applies to the Actionbar.
Issue came back for hotbar tooltips in 1.19.40.24 preview
It looks like the issue returned once again in 1.19.50.24
This was fixed in a previous beta but than it was reverted back in another. Haven’t heard anything about it since
Can confirm still an issue as of latest release 1.20.41 and beta/preview 1.20.60.21
(06/12/2023) EDIT: Still an issue as of release 1.20.50
(14/12/2023) EDIT: Still an issue as of betas/previews 1.20.60.22 and 1.20.60.23
It's fixed in actionbar
This bug is still happening, would love for it to be fixed.
