Dompap Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Hi. I've made a circular logo, which I wish to give a transparent background (Image attached). The only method I know to export with transparency is to export selection only. So, since I got elements not cut in a way to make a prefect circle, I thought I could make a ring object, select the ring and one item at a time, and then use a subtract boolean to cut it. Instead the line shorten, gets thinner and the tip is still round. (example of the orange line in attached image) How would I solve this properly? Thanks in advance. And feedback on the design itself would also be welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hangman Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 Hi @Dompap, You should be able to use a clipping mask for what you want to achieve... Duplicate your graduated blue background layer and give it no fill and no stroke and move it to the top of the layers panel Take your grouped logo elements and drag them over the layer text (rather than the layer icon) of the new duplicated circle layer to clip it inside the circle Something like this...
