All of those have been part of the Title Designer for years. Make sure you're in the Advanced tab (not Express) for the backdrop settings, while Fade In/Out are one of many dozens of options on the Animation tab.

Maybe watching this quick tutorial will help. The Advanced settings start at 1:10 if you want to skip ahead

I tried the Title Designer. Managed to include backdrop with opacity and fading animation.

But still have limitation.

It will remove the backdrop if I include fading animation. Can't have both together

Can't draw a line around the backdrop

To make fade in/out effect on a title with backdrop, the only way is using opacity keyframes in current version.
