Hi,
I have recently started working with Indesign, having had much experience with Microsoft Word.
I was looking for a way to apply a stroke to one corner of a text frame, which I found here.
https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/stroke-on-only-one-side-of-a-square/m-p/3137746#...
One thing, which was not mentioned there was, we have to apply this method to strokes only (not to the whole object).
For this we need to go to:
Window > Effects > Select 'stroke'
And then apply the trick above.

I don't like this approach as it adds 'transparency' to the page - and as a print guy it sends shivers up my spine.
There are other options
Instead of a Text Frame - you can use a Table - and the table can be stroked independently on all sides
And with new features - you can use Paragraph Borders - even rounding corners
