Border Size
I'm trying to create a white border that's larger than the plain white border that's available in the effects panel... I've tried the thickness (scale) in the transform section but that's not big enough. I know I can do this in Photoshop by creating a white layer and then increasing the canvas size...and attempted to do similar in On1 but cannot get that to work.
Any suggestions ...thanks in advance.

I just tried an experiment with the default Simple white square border. I opened 2 instances and in the upper one I used Fit Image to reduce the size which also reduced the size of the border below it. So you have 2 borders one within the other. In this screenshot I've reduced the inner border enough so that you can see that there are 2 of them.
This also reveals a bug in the program. You can see a shadow behind the dead tree. That's not supposed to be a shadow, it's supposed to be a mask centered on the tree, it's been shifted when it shouldn't have been. You'll need to watch out for that or maybe do the borders first before any masking.

Thanks for that Rick.
I discovered that if I applied the border in Effects and then creating a new stamped layer, after which I applied the Border Effect again I was able to double up on the border size.

There you go, two solutions.
I reported the shifted mask problem to On1.

Perfect

I would think the easiest is to take it into Layers, resize the canvas and use a color fill layer like this:

Yes much better....I tried doing this along these lines previously, but couldn't get it to work. Seems I missed a step along the way. Thank you so much.

An additional advantage is the white color can be fine tuned

Just a follow up.
On1 says they know about the bug I mentioned above and that it should be fixed in PR2019.
