Text stroke problem for text placed in a frame from a master page.

[artserv]

Hi, and thank you for your programs!

I think it should be possible to stroke text in a regular page when the text had been added to a text frame defined on a master page. Right now it does not work. I run Publisher on a Windows 10 machine with 16 GB of memory.

Weird that it doesn't. Double weird that I hadn't noticed that we couldn't do this as well all the way back in version 1.

Hey @artserv,

I can't see a reason why this would be by design, particularly since on Windows it's possible to change the colour of the outline/stroke but it's not possible on Mac without detaching first, which is inconsistent.

Therefore, I've logged this with the developers for further investigation and judgement.
