Thanks Xhris. I wonder if there is a logical reason why the modifying object sits below the modified object in Clipview and above the modified object when creating a mask. Not that it matters very much.

They don't work 'just' like clipviews, as I pointed out in another thread. You can also apply an OM to a bunch of objects at once, be they vector or bitmap.
Yeah, that's a good point about applying OM to multiple objects. If you paste as an OM on a selection of objects, then the paste operation groups automatically for you before applying the OM. Otherwise you would have to group the objects manually so they became the backmost object and then apply OM in the usual way with 'o' just like clipviews with 'q'. Depending on what is getting the OM applied to it (i.e. just 1 or many objects), pasting an OM can sometimes be a little bit quicker in the latter case as it bypasses the need to group.
Xhris,
pressing "o" doesnīt apply any opacity mask. Thatīs something you have configured manually. Itīs not a default keystroke.
It will be a default keystroke in the CD, it just wasn't set in the download version.
I did these using cut piece from each ring and used subtract of the cut piece and the ring below to get a reasonable result.
Great, simple and elegant.
