Shapes

Using the functions in this menu, you can combine a group of shapes with a single mouse click in different ways. Basically, we differentiate between combinations which combine all objects to one single object, and combinations where all objects are combined to a group.


Sample images illustrate the menu commands. As the starting point in example 1, you see two simple shape frames with different shapes and colors.

Example 2 also uses two simple shape frames plus an image. The shape frame's shape colors have been set transparent and the outline has been activated as clipping path. This gives interesting image masking results.
