All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class AlienGlowTextEffect
extends TextEffect

Paints an alien glow text effect, whereas you are able to specify the inner and outer color as well as the font-color.

Activate the alien glow text effect by specifying text-effect: alien-glow; in your polish.css file. You can finetune the effect with following attributes:

• alien-glow-inner-color: the inner color of the alien glow, which is usually and by default white.
• alien-glow-outer-color: the outer color of the alien glow, which is green by default.
• font-color:: You should set the font-color black in order to get an nice alien glow effect.

Choosing the same inner and outer color and varying the transparency is recommended. Dropshadow just works, if the Text is opaque.
