Eraser Tool?

Hi there. I'm new to SCAL3 (Bot a silver bullet!), and am proficient with Illustrator and Silhouette software. Is there an eraser tool in SCAL3? I can't find one, and have googled it to death. Seems odd that there wouldn't be one. Maybe I'm missing something obvious. For example, if I draw a circle and want to put a 1 mil opening in it, the quickest way on the Sil is just a 1 mil eraser, make a swipe and I've got my opening. Thoughts?

Thx
Sue

In SCAL, place another circle within the one you want the hole in. Drag around both items to select them.
Go to Path - Back minus front.

I think this is what you are asking.
