Thank you Hans! It’s a huge leap forward for me but unfortunately it only renders properly on Firefox.

I know that multiple objects inside a group will be okay but what about a group outline made out of several shapes to produce a new shape (for instance like two circles would produce a “stereo” icon mask).
