Inset Panel Tutorial - 2006/03/03 02:54 Sometimes you want to inset a panel and have the other panels wraparound it. Here's what you do:

1. Design your page. Drag the inset panel onto hte surrounding panels. You can get a perfect circle by lining up the center handles on the circle with the space between the panels. If they don't match up, try either resizing the circle or increasing the grid spacing (Arrange->Set Grid Spacing).

Re:Inset Panel Tutorial - 2006/03/03 03:01 Step 2: Create two panel "cross bars" to cover the lines of the insets in between the panels. Make sure that you click the shadow and frame boxes off when you're done.

Re:Inset Panel Tutorial - 2006/03/03 03:04 Obviously, you could use other shapes as well. If certain parts don't line up (such as the top of the pentagon), increase your grid spacing.

Re:Inset Panel Tutorial - 2006/03/03 03:08 Finally, you probably want to have a picture in the inset panel. Copy the inset shape and resize it until the spaces between the panels looks right. And that's it!
