how to reverse the veil of a Layer Clipping Path?

i m learning PS6, following Classroom In A Book from ADOBE.

i drew a circle path in center of the image, Add Layer Clipping Path>current path, trying to dig a hole in this layer. but... what i got was a biscuit!

How to reverse it? i mean the path?(i cannot find a command to do this.):confused:

Make your hole with the circle selection tool, then ctr+shift+I
Paths pallet fly out, make the selection a clipping path...

that is about it...... what ever is INSIDE the path is still visible...

No - there IS a way to invert the path selection

First select your path shape with the selection tool - now on the options bar at the top are a number of buttons - just try them all, if memory serves me its the one at the far right you need. This will give you a vector hole rather than a vector biscuit.

Markzebra is correct. Using the path selection tool, select your path, then you'll see 4 buttons on the top toolbar. The rightmost button will reverse the path settings. Actually, the middle buttons will also do the same thing.

I'm still caught in the past I suppose.

thanks a lot, guys.
i try it: draw the circles and select all of them, then: layer>add layer clipping path, and choose the Path componet selection tool(black arrow), click the second button(subtract from shape area) of the four on the top bar. that s alright.
