When I place a square (size 200x200) on position (0,0) on a 200x200 template with a stroke style width of 51 (thick line) then part of the border falls outside the template and is also not visible when the template is used.  
Is there an easy way to have this square in its entirety on the template without making difficult calculations to determine an offset and the dimensions of the square (and so let Ignition determine this)?  
So what I want to enter is the dimensions (200x200) of the square including the thickness of the edge. 🤔

Sorry, no. This is really java.swing behavior, not anything particular to Ignition.
