I am making a Scratch project called “Clone Wars”. For the thunmbnail, I have text that has been outlined. When I make the outline thicker, it ruins the text. Is there a way to fix this without exiting scratch?

I noticed that it only is messed up past 2, if you want it thicker than that there is a little trick I learned, you just make another text box behind your main text. The only other solution is to make the text larger.

Sadly, I don't think there's an easy way to fix this. I would try using the trick in the above post, or if you have a solid background, try covering the thorns with small squares at the top. You could also make the outline smaller and just put bigger text behind it, if you understand what I mean. Hope this helps!

there's an easier way to remove them by modifying the .svg file

1. Export your sprite as “(sprite name).svg”

2. open the .svg file in notepad

3. hit “Ctrl + h”

4. replace x with y

- x = stroke-linejoin=“miter”
- y = stroke-linejoin=“round”

5. save the .svg file after modifying

6. import it to scratch and you're done
