libtxt: Text shadow

Add support for text shadowing as in CSS.

Or point me to it if it already exists; doesn't seem to be in TextStyle or TextDecoration.

So this won't be addressed any time soon?

Looks like this is currently prioritized as something we want in the intermediate term but not something we need immediately.

Customer Pink requires this feature.

@dvdwasibi

@dvdwasibi You can fake it for now by blurring one text widget at on offset, then putting another on top.

customer: dream is also interested in this. We'll need to discuss their needs in more detail.

Eagerly hopeful for an easier way to achieve this, other than the BackdropFilter option

Also waiting for this!

This is indispensable!

Need this really. Not a workaround but a solid feature.

PR:
#22449 (framework)
flutter-team-archive/engine#6385 (engine)

Text shadows have landed with bdc3dda

To enable shadows, provide a List<Shadow> to TextStyle.shadows:

import 'dart:ui';

...

Text(
  'Hello, world!',
  style: TextStyle(
    shadows: <Shadow>[
      Shadow(
        offset: Offset(10.0, 10.0),
        blurRadius: 3.0,
        color: Color.fromARGB(255, 0, 0, 0),
      ),
      Shadow(
        offset: Offset(10.0, 10.0),
        blurRadius: 8.0,
        color: Color.fromARGB(125, 0, 0, 255),
      ),
    ],
  ),
),
