    not sure if this is what you meant

    But I deleted all thewhite squares and then used the cut path as a clipping path In siglab you will only see the whole thing with fill turned off

    Peter – you are a STAR that is JUST how I wanted it 😀 😛 Thanks also for your help Steve, but not quite what I Wanted.

    Just ONE other question? How can I make a complete REVERSE of it so wording stays the same but so the whole thing faces the opposite way? 😕

    In SL you’ll find the mirror option on the layout menu, however the text will need to copied from original and re-positioned.
    Are you using SignLab?
