(Most of the time with straight borders, sometimes with carefully shaped borders. but when I think of my huge CD collection, I would avoid doing that and rather put text frames on top of the CD shape. (Scaling is a bit painful, but moving around works also with the mouse: you simply need to double click on the image.)Īs far as I can tell, you're already doing that with the text. Now you can load an image into the frame and use the "Image" tab of the "Window > Properties" palette to scale and move around the image inside of the CD shape. Select both circles, go to "Item > (Path tools >) Path Operations", and pick the "Substract" button.If I read you question correctly, you have (mostly) already answered it: just create a "CD" shape that you convert to an image frame and where you can load the image. Also this should be done automatically as already states as the text and the image(s) must be exchanged to generate a set of different layouts for different CDs.Ĭan you give me a hint, how I can achive this desired effect? Thank you. This will work but I thought it might be better done in scribus. One alternative is loading the exported file into GIMP and put a mask on it. Ideally this should be done in scribus as I can see the final result in the preview then. So I want everything to be white except for the area beteween the two circles. I want to make this white in order to avoid wasting ink on these areas while printing (and making a mess in my printer by the way). In the lower right corner the image overruns the borders (as well as at the hub). The outlines are on a separate layer and I enabled it to descibe my problem a bit more clearly. I just clicked together a minimal example of the issue with a small image from pixabay: However this is quite intensive from the perspective of workload. I could of course shift the image to the desired location and then adopt the shape of the image frame. So I need to adopt to the needs for each CD individually. These images are rectangular and or various aspect ratios etc. I have a set of images one per CD design. My problem is the cropping of the whole document in non-regular shape (and the hub in the middle). I wanted to create a template version that I would copy for each CD I need to create. The CDs should have similar design in the sense, that there should be a title, some lines of text and an image. I want to create a set of designs to print on some CDs.
