Stroke

A stroke, also referred to as a border, is a line that wraps around a layer. In design software, the stroke properties can be updated to customize its style, size, and color.

Stroke Properties

• A stroke can be solid or dashed. A solid stroke is an uninterrupted line. A dashed stroke consists of dashes or small lines spaced at uniform intervals.
• The stroke’s color and opacity can be updated from the color picker.
• The weight, or thickness, can be increased to make the stroke more perceivable.
• The position, or where the stroke sits on the layer, can be set to outside, inside, or center.
• The join, or how the stroke meets at the corners, can be set to miter, bevel, or round. Note that the join style does not impact the shape’s corner radius.
