question about overlapping shapes
Is there a way to to have one side of a shape below the other shape, and other end of it above without editing the shapes themselves? In this example - Yellow under purple at top, and over purple at bottom.

Re: question about overlapping shapes
As per se, there is no way for compositing two objects that way.
Instead, you can mimmick the look by more than two -three- objects.

Good luck!

Re: question about overlapping shapes
Applying a clipping path to the top object is the other classic way to deal with this. See part 13 of my tutorial series for details: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11981
