Cutting a piece out of a text/image in Xtreme

[ArchersPromo]

Hi guys,

Hope you can help me with this.

I am trying to cut a piece of the enclosed text/image. It is an h and I want to simply cut the the curly part of the h at the end so I can attach it to the end of another text f, but with me using a rectangle and the Clipview technique to do this I am getting a larger space for the entire image so when I attempt to change the colour the whole rectangle's colour changes.

Any help or advice as to how I can simply trim the end/curly side of the h without getting rid of the png style effect?

Thanks
