Re: Border on the outside of an object
Wastlinger,
There are several ways to do this. My prefered option would be:
1: Create a rectangle, no line width, 100 x 100 pixels.
2: Clone (Ctrl+K). Change fill colour.
3: Select the Contour tool. Type in a contour width of 10 pix. Mitre Join.
4: Click on the Inset Path icon.
5: Select the Selector Tool. Arrange / Move Backwards (Ctrl+Shift+B)
Not 100% sure on your original request. A 100 x 100 pix square with a 10 pix border would be 120 x 120 pix wouldn't it?
Norm, the problem with using line width to create the border is that the line width is applied half in and half out of the shape, therefore applying line width 'reduces' the internal shapes dimensions.
