Hi Mohammad,

Yes, it is the text shadow. Actually, this is the original design from Small Basic, but it caused me many troubles when I made some modifications, so, I kept it this way. I may look into it again. By the way, try this:

GraphicsWindow.Width = 700
GraphicsWindow.BackgroundColor = Colors.Green
GraphicsWindow.FontBold = True
GraphicsWindow.FontSize = 60
'draw a black shadow texts
GraphicsWindow.PenColor = Colors.Black
GraphicsWindow.BrushColor = Colors.Black
For I = 1 To 25
   Txt = Shapes.AddText("Small Visual Basic")
   Shapes.Animate(Txt, 92, 142, 2000 + I * 50)
Next
' draw white text shifted by (8,8)
GraphicsWindow.PenColor = Colors.White
GraphicsWindow.BrushColor = Colors.White
Txt = Shapes.AddText("Small Visual Basic")
Shapes.Animate(Txt, 100, 150, 2000)
