It would be great to have a method that could set the border from an element! Something like:

```auto
elements.your_element.setBorder([topsize], [left size], [bottom size], [right size], [top color], [right color], [bottom color], [left color], [rounding], [pattern], [lowered/raised])

```

Great option for:

- buttons
- formbackground
- reports

Yes, I would like to have that feature, too and it has been requested before.
