You can try like this:

Change Styling mode in Settings - Document properties - General to Advanced.

Create a text box, go to Layout tab.

Use rounded corners (all 4 corners checked), with a Squareness of 0 or 1.

Resize your object to the size you need and adapt the corner radius to an appropriate value.

Hi,

You can do one with a Radar chart, but I am not sure if that is what you are looking for as it would be mono-color.

You can have a 6 segment pie chart.

Next option is to go to using an Extension Object.

What exactly are you trying to achieve? Might be better to simplify.

It's probably easiest to create (or find) an image file of a hexagon and use that as background for the text box.
