Does anyone know of any way (even with an external plugin) that will allow you to have a stroke on only one side of an object (or just top & bottom, etc).

Correct answer Wade_Zimmerman1

You can do it with a rectangle with two fills

I would have to htink it over about doing it with an iregular shape or ellipse.

Benjamin,

apart from the instant recommendations, your initial question was about a way that will allow you to have a stroke on only one side of an object (or just top & bottom, etc).

Can you clarify what you mean by object here?

Preferably, post some screenshots that show the desired effects.

I think they've got as close as Illustrator can get at this point.

Wade & Monica both gave viable solutions.

The perfection in me gets annoyed with it a little because even though it's behind the object, the other 3 sides of the stroke are still there. But it works.
