Hi Alex,
this is not really supported atm in the composer. There are two blog posts which might get you going to achieve something similar than your example. But grids will definitely be a problem: https://anitagraser.com/2016/05/01/how-to-create-round-maps-in-print-composer/ https://smathermather.com/2013/04/09/quantum-gis-compositing-continued/ best, Frank Dipl.

Thanks guys for your suggestions. Unfortunatly this was not what I was looking for. I was looking for a mask in the Layouts window. And I would like it to be full transparent regarding other elements of the layout. Following the example of the video, I would like to have a map item with the shape of that country. but I would like to see the layout items that are around the map. Cherry on top of the cake: that the grids still work fine with labels around the edges of the irregular shape. I hate cite ESRI but here it goes... Something like this image: https://community.esri.com/servlet/JiveServlet/showImage/2-753103-397442/pastedImage_2.png Thanks, Alex Richard Duivenvoorde <rdmaili...@duif.net <mailto:rdmaili...@duif.net> > escreveu no dia quarta, 20/06/2018 às 08:56: Works like a charm. Thanks Frank for the tip! Quick and easy: - copy a feature - paste as memory layer - put it on top - choose 'Inverted polygons' as Symbology - fiddle with transparency Is worth a blog post somewhere if you ask me :-) Regards, Richard Duivenvoorde On 20-06-18 08:39, Frank Broniewski wrote: > The process in this video is really outdated, there’s an „inverted > polygon“ renderer which does the same without having to go through all > the hassle.
