is there a way to design a linked graphic in Illustrator with some kind of invisibility cloak in the layers.
Let me explain.
Let's say I want to reuse a sketch like this
Where in fact, the rectangle fill color is transparent, and I don't really want to have a purple fill color for the ellipse, but I want it to hide the path of the rectangle.
Then, I want to be able to reuse it on some backgrounds like this:
In order to reach the final result
The thing is: I don't want the ellipse to really be purple in the image that I save in my Illustrator Cloud library, I just want it to adapt its color to whatever is beneath the rectangle layer
That way, if I have an orange background, I want to immediately (without modification of the link) reach the following result
instead of this (my current achievement)
Is it possible without embedding the image nor destroying the shapes? Really, as if the ellipse was acting as an invisibility cloak for the rectangle.
