Text around objects

Bug Description

It would be great to have an option for every object that activate a "text
deform" property, like in Corel, Illustrator and others... So, if we have a
text block, by draggin a triangle into the middle of it, the text would go
around it. An advanced feature would be de ability to detect transparency
on images, like PNG, and go around the pictures too...

I think what you're describing is text flow or wrap. Scribus has quite a
few features that are useful for that. I imagine that's more of a DTP thing
than it is a vector graphics thing. Perhaps you can create your document
elements in Inkscape and import to scribus for adding body text performing
wrapping, etc.?

Nah, not just a DTP thing, IMO. I could use it right now on a project using Inkscape.

I'd quite like this too. Scribus has it but Inkscape has better vector options
