how to put a border around a shape

Asked by JoshuaBr

I am trying to get the outline of several shapes such as the star and square. However, when I turn them white, they disappear as there is no border. How do I put a border on these shapes so that they show up?

You can use the Fill and Stroke dialog (Shift+Ctrl+F or use the icon on the top toolbar (looks like a paintbrush)). On the "Stroke paint" tab of the Fill and Stroke dialog, click the "Flat color" button. You can adjust the stroke width on the "Stroke style" tab.
