Hi,

 

can I let the alpha channel of the fill color of 2 paths (each on an own layer) be operated with by a selected mask operation such as subtract?

 

How?

 

Thanks,

 

u&i

so i found a way to achieve the desired outcome:

 

selecting both layers, choosing Layers -> Geometry -> XOR from the menubar.

 

But this leaves only 1 layer present, I seem not be able to edit the cutting path anymore.

 

How can I leave the cutting path editable or if it still is, how can I access it?

I can select the resulting layer and choose Layers -> Geometry -> separate layers from the menubar, get 2 layers again, edit the cutting path and XOR them again.

 

How can I achieve this as quickly as clicking the border of the cutted path where the cutting path cut?

 

Do you see the "e" image post? It's indicated as "Hidden" to me.

I see clicking inside the space cut from the path with the node selection tool results in all combined paths nodes be shown and be editable.

Hold down alt/option key as you perform the XOR to create a Compound, which is a container like a Group that enables non-destructive Boolean operations.
