Im somewhat new to figma so forgive me if this is a basic question. What is the best way to create a partial outline? For example,
I initially duplicated the rectangle and made it a bit bigger, but the proportions for the curve were no longer correct.
Thank you in advance
It's a little tricky, but possible.
Draw a square and round the corners, set a fill, but no stroke.
Duplicate it using Ctrl+D, then add a stroke and remove the fill. Set the stroke to "center".
Using the Move Tool V, double click on the stroke to edit it, and add nodes. Note: This is a tricky part, since you have to add a centre node first, then you can add others to the left or right of the centre node.
Select some segments and Delete them. Note: It can be quite difficult to select a segment. You need to hover your mouse over a segment between two nodes, the line changes colour slightly to show when you've selected it.
Select the filled square, and bring it to the front using ]
