Hello Forum,
I am a complete beginner as I do not work with editing programs.
I'm trying to make a small video for a friend and I want the Star Wars scrolling text to be in it.
Now I wanted to represent the word Star Wars with Stroke
See Attachment1
Unfortunately, I can't find that in my options.
See Attachment2
Is this because I am using the free version of DaVinci Resolve?
Thanks for reading and also for the help if you can help.

Well, since I have strokes for basic title text, it may be a limitation of the free version.
BTW, this is an English language forum and you may not get many answers if the headline is in German, but your text in English

There is a German forum for DaVinci Resolve:
http://www.davinci-resolve-forum.deAnd a pretty good YT channel in German:

Stroke works fine in the free version.
Here are black letters on a black background with a white Stroke added.
Adding a white Stroke to white letters will not show up, it will just make them a little fatter.

This title has a drop-shadow and Stroke added to pull it out of the background.

Ok now I have one that says it's in the free and one that says it's not.
@Charles Bennett if it is in the free version why is it not showing up for me? I haven't changed anything, I just installed and used Resolve.

A late reply I'm afraid. I am using the free version. You can see my title settings in the Inspector in the pic.

And I only wrote it "may" not be in free, since I can't test that.
