    Hey there.

    The image does not show enough detail. Can you turn on the wireframe mode by pressing “Shift + O” and take another screenshot?

    This is an ancient well known bug. The only workaround is to use something other than a stroke to achieve the effect you need.

        I have the same issue when adding Strokes to characters with circles or dots, like when using characters such as . ! : etc.

        So this is a rendering bug in Figma?

        Hi ​@Patrick-Plaggenborg, thanks for following up! 

        Yes, as Gleb mentioned above, this is a long-standing bug that is as old as Figma itself. While the team is aware of this issue, we don’t have an exact timeline to share on a fix.
