In Scribus, shapes can be used for many purposes: for example as image frames, or as basis for complex borders.
Scribus offers some tools for creating shapes. But for more complex shapes, it is better to use a specialized program: a vector drawing program, for example Inkscape. These drawings, saved as SVG files, can be imported into Scribus via "File / Import / SVG File".
We want to collect some shapes. If this succeeds, we can build a scrapbook file with these shapes for distributing them with Scribus.
When creating shapes for Scribus, please consider some constrictions:
- A shape should consist of just one, closed path
- It should be not filled with any color
Here are two simple examples, a heart and a candle. Please feel free to upload your shapes!
