## Topics

### Setting the stroke border characteristics

[`strokeBorder(_:lineWidth:antialiased:)`](/documentation/SwiftUI/InsettableShape/strokeBorder(_:lineWidth:antialiased:))

Returns a view that is the result of filling the `lineWidth`-sized
border (aka inner stroke) of `self` with `content`. This is
equivalent to insetting `self` by `lineWidth / 2` and stroking the
resulting shape with `lineWidth` as the line-width.

[`strokeBorder(lineWidth:antialiased:)`](/documentation/SwiftUI/InsettableShape/strokeBorder(lineWidth:antialiased:))

Returns a view that is the result of filling the `lineWidth`-sized
border (aka inner stroke) of `self` with the foreground color.
This is equivalent to insetting `self` by `lineWidth / 2` and
stroking the resulting shape with `lineWidth` as the line-width.

[`strokeBorder(_:style:antialiased:)`](/documentation/SwiftUI/InsettableShape/strokeBorder(_:style:antialiased:))

Returns a view that is the result of insetting `self` by
`style.lineWidth / 2`, stroking the resulting shape with
`style`, and then filling with `content`.

[`strokeBorder(style:antialiased:)`](/documentation/SwiftUI/InsettableShape/strokeBorder(style:antialiased:))

Returns a view that is the result of insetting `self` by
`style.lineWidth / 2`, stroking the resulting shape with
`style`, and then filling with the foreground color.

### Setting the inset

[`inset(by:)`](/documentation/SwiftUI/InsettableShape/inset(by:))

Returns `self` inset by `amount`.

[`InsetShape`](/documentation/SwiftUI/InsettableShape/InsetShape)

The type of the inset shape.
