Can't convert .ass file with opaque backgrounds #58

Closed wavetro closed 2 years ago

So I have my subtitles configured like this to have opaque black backgrounds:

However, when I drag-and-drop the .ass file onto the program, the only options I have are soft shadows.

Trying the "Autoconvert" and "Convert" buttons both give me .YTT files that only have these four soft drop shadows and not my desired black box backgrounds.

The readme/documentation page shows that having a solid box is a supported style with this program- how do I get YTSubConverter to keep my subtitles' backgrounds black and opaque? The only other styling I've been using is changing the primary color of the text with {\1c&HXXXXXX&} tags and nothing else. (using Aegisub on Linux and YTSubConverter on Windows)

To get a background box, please give the Aegisub style an Outline rather than a Shadow.
