![]() ![]() I'd be happy for someone to tell me otherwise though. Or, at least, I've not yet found one myself. Sorry but I don't think there's a neat answer. If you want it to always be a rectangular path clockwise around an image 100px from the image edge, after creating a black 50 opacity 'darkening strip' for the text you could probably do that in scriptfu in just a handful of lines for path generation, and text-along-path still would apply. (And a contour line on a straight line - or a straight bezier curve segment - is pretty useless.) ![]() It's difficult to explain but try drawing a curve and editing the contour line and seeing what happens when you try and flow text around it. I don't think there's a way to "keep text behind a line" that is curved because Scribus always "closes" a contour line so the line would be joined at both ends making a shape instead of a line.

Im almost embarrassed to be posting this question, because up till last night, I thought I had this sussed out. It does not affect the text within the same object. (Scribus 1.4.7 on Windows 7) - new user Hello, and apologies if this is a FAQ.
