How to specify border only for one side of a rectangle

[Sandhiya]

We have a rectangle ,want to give a border of 3 pix only on the right side of the rectangle with the color red.How to achieve this without using custom rectangle as border.

@Sandhiya

you don't

either use a canvas and paint the border like you want it or place a 2nd rectangle where the border should be, adjust it size and set the background color to the border color.

@J.Hilk Anything other than that?

@Sandhiya
make your own Item via QQuickItem - base class (c++) and define that behaviour in the paint function. But that's in my opinion why to much effort for such a simple task.

I know of no other way besides those 3 I posted.

@Sandhiya
you can use clip property

 Item {
        height: 100
        width: 100
        clip: true
        anchors.centerIn: parent
        Rectangle {
            anchors.fill: parent
            anchors.rightMargin: -border.width
            anchors.topMargin:  -border.width
            anchors.bottomMargin: -border.width
            border.width: 3
            border.color:"red"
        }
    }
