[Qgis-user] Layouts --> Show maps in irregular polygon like a Tetris

[Richard McDonnell]

Bob,
One other option, in addition or Miquel’s,  would be to draw the polygons as you have shown them below. You can then use the Inverted Polygon option under Properties, Symbology, this will create a view like what you are looking for.
If you set the polygon fill to white, you can even set the up the transparency so as to show the rest of the map areas only lighter.
Hope this helps,

Richard.

Hi QGIS users & developers !!!

In layout, you can insert many maps (Add map), but only can be regular polygons (square or rectangular), but when you want to create a special presentation like a Tetris, you can't do it. The figures circle, triangular, add polygon,... can't show maps inside them.
Someone know how can show maps inside irregular polygons in layouts?
Would be nice that QGIS has this options in layouts...
