(thinking…)

Apply a border/stroke to 1 side of a rectangle.

Rectangles: allow 1 or more sides to have a border(stroke), like: border-top

    please add the ability to do this, same as css (border-top, etc)

    Is this seriously not possible still?

  • Jeremy Mcleod commented  ·   ·  Report

    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.

    I'm being yelled at by my boss to switch to Sketch because Adobe XD is not capable of competing with them. I don't really want to because I have been with Adobe for over 15 years, so I'm hoping they pull through for all of our sake.

    There are times this would be needed, such as Repeat Grid for bordered table rows. Instead of having to set it to -1 to avoid double borders, could set the row to only have a bottom or top border.

    To select the border sides, you could basically duplicate the look/functionality of the border radius corner selections.

    A basic CSS property and available in Axure since forever. Love to see this in XD.

    Many different design systems have this little border on the side or on the bottom of their cards and modules. A feature like this would be very appreciated.

    This would mess up the appearance panel. You woudn't want this. Think twice.

  • Michele commented  ·   ·  Report

    Yes please! Just started on XD, and only a couple hours in and I'm already in need of this feature in several places. Would be great, thanks!
