    Sometimes it is necessary to color-code labels, edit fields, checkboxes, etc … to show the difference.

    But that could cause problems, if someone is choosing a skin with similar base (backround) color.

    (For example at this picture the green Checkboxes indicating those options are saved globally into database, and not locally at ini files…)

    Is there some kind of easy method to draw all these texts over a strong-contrast shadow to make it readable?

    … like on this example, where I draw 2x on Canvas directly, it makes much easier to read a yellow text on a yellowish background-texture:

    … for example globally override the 'Arial' font with auto generated shadowed font ?
