Trimming overlapping shapes

[paolo_bell]

i am trying to make a 2d leaf pattern, but i cant figure out how to composite the finished lines together to make it look like they overlap. i have been using a workaround using extrusion that worked for the boundry, but now that im starting to work on the inner details there is no way to continue using this method. can anyone help me find a solution? please ask if you need addition info to diagnose a solution. thank you so much, love you guys!

Hello,

Here is a solution with Region Difference.
For each leaf n, I remove all overlapping curves from the set of leaves [|0;n-1|].
This ensures the central curve can be projected on the correct remaining surface.
