Hi everybody 😉

I was wondering if there was an easy way to scale a rectangle to say 200% without having its border stroke scale to 200% too. I just want the border to scale along to encapsulate the same height & width as the fill, but keep its size at 1.

Hope i don’t sound too confusing 😉

Thanks!
