I'm not sure if I follow, so let's start with an example: http://srufaculty.sru.edu/david.dailey/svg/carveholes.svg
In this, clicking in the blue rectangle cuts holes in it so we can see what is behind. What doesn't happen here is that the holes do not then "block" the addition of new holes (in ways that one might consider suboptimal). Is it that you want the holes not to allow new "drawing"? cheers David ----- Original Message ----- From: svgprof To: svg-developers@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, November 21, 2008 2:15 PM Subject: [svg-developers] Inverted mask? Hello, how can I declare a shape (eg. filled circle) which prevents drawing? When I draw a shape inside a mask, then the shape allows drawing and the outside area is blocked. But I need the reverse: all outside area should allow drawing, but the shape-interior should be a hole.
