Hi Dave
You are stuck with the rectangular frame shape. However, the creative use of
some layering of objects in the layout may get you what you want. Remember,
you _can_ control the "Z Order" of objects in the layout, so it is possible
to lay an object over the map in the frame. A little judicious work with
some of the graphical objects (circle, rectangle, line, etc.) will probably
get you the results you want.
Regards,
James
