Transparency of object and to all layers below

Hi guys,

 

I am stuck at a problem with the transparency across multiple layers in a case where it is very tiresome to modify all paths in the layers below in order for the background to show through. I want to set the fill of my shape (the selected circle) to 0% so that the background shows through, but without the lines and paths of all the layers below to be seen as well. Is there a way to do this? I found knockout maps and masks online but couldn't figure out how these would enable the "subtraction" of the below layers.

 

Would be really glad if anyone had a solution, thanks!

Fill your selected circle with a color, and set the opacity of the fill to zero percent. Make a group of the circle and the lines that you want knocked out. Then, in the Group's opacaity options, select Knockout Group

Thanks - I somehow didn't manage to understand the option before. Both options achieved the goal, actually. I'll continue knocking out the circles that are left in my artwork. 

Thank you both!

Hello, abufaso
How about creating a clipping mask with perforated objects?

Sorry for the Japanese version of the image.
