[Qgis-user] styling to cut out underlying features

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Benjamin,

Just to see if I correctly understand you.

Something along the lines of the selective masking proposal at 
https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/issues/63 where one 
could select not only layers, but also symbol levels (symbol layers 
inside a layer) to selectively mask underlying symbol layers.

Unfortunately this isn't implemented yet. Still looking for funders - 
probably something for QGIS 3.2

Is this what you want, or something else?

Greetings,
Andreas
