Merge Shapes

You can combine multiple shapes and icon objects into one object using the [Merge Shapes] feature.

Merge Objects

  1. Select the objects you want to merge on the screen.
  2. Select the type of operation from [Merge Shapes].
Note:
  • When using [Grid] or [Scroll Grid] layouts, [Spacing] for the [Y Direction] is defined in rows.
  • When using [Dock Panel], [Stack Panel], or [Uniform Grid] layouts, this property is unavailable.

Types of Combinations

Union

Merges two or more shapes to create a single Path shape.

Example:

Combine

Merges two or more selected shapes so that only the areas that do not overlap with the areas of other shapes are merged to create a single Path shape.

Example

Intersect

Intersection of two or more selected shapes to create a single Path shape.

Example

Note: If the result is too small to display, an error message appears.

Subtract

From the first shape, subtracts the area of subsequent shapes to create a single Path shape.

Example

Note: If multiple objects are selected while holding down [CTRL], the area of the other objects will be cut off from the first selected object.

Example

When using [Combine] with [Polygon] and [Text Box].

When using [Subtract] with an [Icon] object and a [Rectangle].
