ShapeTrack
Add clean boxes, rounded panels and circles behind your titles, filled and outlined, and sharp at any scale.
A ShapeTrack is a shape layer of a CookVideo: a Rectangle, a RoundedRectangle (CornerRadius) or an Ellipse filling its Size box, see-through outside the shape. FillColor and FillTransparency fill it; StrokeColor, StrokeThickness and StrokeTransparency draw an outline inside the box, so nothing is clipped at its edge. It is drawn at Size times Scale, so it stays sharp when scaled up. It keys, trims, masks and blends like any layer.
