            Bug ID: 144525
           Summary: Allow fill for line strokes and borders of shapes
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.2.0.4 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: medium
         Component: LibreOffice
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: cpumood at gmail.com

Description:
If I draw a shape such as a rectangle, I have many fill options. I can fill
with gradient, hatch, pattern, color, or bitmap. However, this applies to the
inside of the shape, not the border. I would like to be able to do this on the
border of shapes as well as lines. As a workaround, if I'm using Draw, if I
convert my line to Contour I can make my line with these effects (see
attachment). However, as far as I know you can't do this in Writer. You also
can't do this for the border of shapes. Please allow fill options for lines and
borders of shapes without requiring strange workarounds in all LibreOffice
products.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Draw shape
2. Set fill to a pattern, gradient, hatch or bitmap and observe the output
3. Draw line or a non-filled shape
4. Attempt step #2

Actual Results:
1. Doesn't work since it only applies to interior of shape, not border

Expected Results:
If I want my shape to have a border with a bitmap, pattern, or gradient I
should still see it.


Reproducible: Always
