Trapezoid

Trapezoid

Easily create trapezoids with the Trapezoid shape tool.

Customization

The Trapezoid shape has options on the shape and on the context toolbar to change the position of the top corners. This sets the length of the top edge (base) and the angles of the lateral sides (legs).

Settings

The following settings can be adjusted from the context toolbar:

  • Left/Right point—controls the position of the top-left/right corner of the trapezoid from left (0%) to right (100%), with 50% representing a central point.
  • Show Rotation Centre Show Rotation Centre—displays a movable rotation centre about which the shape can be rotated.
  • Hide Selection Hide Selection—when selected, the object's selection box is temporarily hidden when transforming the object. If this option is off, the selection box remains visible during transformation. The selected behaviour persists across all objects unless it is manually switched.
  • Reset Selection Box Reset Selection Box—after reshaping, rotating, or shearing the shape, this option resets the selection box to vertical.
  • Convert to Curves Convert to Curves—converts the selected object into a series of connected lines and nodes.

The left point cannot be positioned further to the right than the current position of the right point, and vice versa.
