Is there a way to draw a border() but on a specific direction? say bottom or start?

if not, i'd love to hear thoughts on how to implement such modifier

[Stylianos Gakis]

Probably use drawWithContent and make the path yourself

[Alex Styl]

nice idea. tried a bit with it and i have to figure this out with offsets, sizes, etc. seems doable

Border take a Shape. Shape can be a custom impl that returns Outline.Generic. which takes a path. You can even animate it nicely with PathMeasurer for progress

[yschimke]

I haven't tried this, but APIs line up

[Alex Styl]

some sort of an api that lets me specify the side of the border, or easier custom shapes for this use case would be fantastic
