I want to clip a hole into a shapefile.
The underlaying shapefile (greenish) consists of many polygons. The overlaying (red) is only one polygon.
When I use the clip tool I get this
or this result (depending on the order of the input shapes for the clip tool).
What I need is basically a hole in the underlaying polygin in the shape of the red polygon. Like on the first images, where there is white underneath the green polygon. What am I doing wrong?
