To create a non-rectangular field region:

1. Select the tool for creating a field of the required type.
2. Select a rectangular region where you can add or remove fragments to create a region of the required shape.
3. Select the tool <img src="https://mintcdn.com/abbyy/dDAYrQCagGQmZN3a/images/flexi-capture/toolbar_template_select.gif?fit=max&auto=format&n=dDAYrQCagGQmZN3a&q=85&s=7678cbc5af0466d6dd5a3918e316ab92" alt="" style={{display:"inline-block",verticalAlign:"middle",margin:0}} width="13" height="18" data-path="images/flexi-capture/toolbar_template_select.gif" /> and make sure that the rectangular region is highlighted.
4. To add a fragment to the region, press the Shift key (the cursor will appear as a "plus" sign) and highlight a fragment you want to add.
5. To exclude a fragment from the region, press the Alt key (the cursor will appear as a "minus" sign) and highlight the fragment you want to exclude.
