Hey folks,

I am a fairly new user of Inkscape and was wondering how I can create a square that has rounded corners on the top, but streight corners on the bottom?

So far, I've noticed there are only 3 nodes which I can use to modify my square. One of which is used to round the corners- but it does all 4. Is there a way I can only select 2 of the 4 corners to round?

You can't do that directly.

A solution is to use two squares, one with rounded corners and another with straight corners and apply boolean operations (union) to obtain the desired shape (you will have do decrease the height of the second square)
