Sketch Outline draws each letter as a hollow outline first, then fills it in — the way you would letter a sign by hand, shape before colour.
What Sketch Outline is good for
Explainer and whiteboard-style video titles

How this animation is built
Two stages: drawStroke animates stroke-dashoffset around each glyph outline, then fillIn fades the interior up behind the completed line. Keeping them strictly sequential is what sells the hand-lettered read — overlapping them just looks like a fade.
Tips for Sketch Outline
The outline stage is the interesting one; give it enough duration to be seen.
Works on light backgrounds, unlike most of the catalogue — it is a drawing, not a light source.
Sketch Outline questions
Can I stop it before the fill?
The outline-only look is what Audiowide Neon Stroke gives you permanently. Sketch Outline is specifically about the transition from line to solid.
