    I thought I needed this feature too! I think if this feature is added, it will definitely be a big factor beyond sketching!

    This is a must in any design tool. I'm new to XD and very surprised this basic feature is not available.

    This is something that you can do very easily (and I would argue regularly) with CSS. This should get considered at least or be marked as "In the backlog". Where is the recognition?!

    When we design dashboard we need stoke and path. We want to apply gradient in border. Many other ui design tools like figma provide this feature but why not adobe xd.

    I would love this feature and would bring my XD designs closer to the way that it will be built.

    Example:
    Instead of making two 1px horizontal lines that cap off a section, I could just make a single box with a top and bottom stroke (which is how the DIV styling would actually be done).

    Erkan Ogumsogutlu oh no! We wouldn't want to mess up the look of the appearance panel by adding useful tools and controls, would we? Seriously, what kind of ridiculous objection is that?

    Adobe, this feature is required NOW. Not only do we need explicit controls for each side of a border, being able to set independent border radii is also a mysteriously missing feature. Meanwhile, Fireworks (which you killed off in favor of XD) had independent border & border-radius controls for each side TWO DECADES AGO.

    Please consider this feature Adobe! I need this all the time.

    A workaround for this is setting a shadow with 1px offset and blur set to a value of 0.

    Far from ideal but slightly better than having to insert another line shape for the border.
