When I want to insert a part of a picture in a drawing - and a part of the imported picture goes outside the lines - how do I then cut the drawing along the lines?

Hi welcome
One way to do it - see attached
Check out help movies too - you can use also clipview which allows you to reposition afterwards

I have illustrated my problem in the attached example. How do I cut along the lines and cut of a part of the "TEST-text".

One way is with Boolean intersect...
The rectangle is transparent red (pink).

Egg Bramhill has a good tutorial video on this: http://youtube.com/watch?v=G8XgHkZo1J8
In this tutorial, he selects a cow out of a larger photo... way beyond just cropping.

If I neede to create a graphic (for the web for instance) of the word, I would just select and export the "pink" square. Then you will have just what you need without slicing and dicing...
Save the juilene fries for something more complex...

Think he meant "julienne" which in the US is pronounced as rhyming with Boolean.

Yes... that is what I meant. If you where in the states, way back when there was a device called the chop-o-matic, that sliced, diced and made julienne fries...
Not to be confused with the Bass-o-matic, which did some truely funny things to fish...
Sorry.. engwish is my mudder tongue. I am still learning english...
