I would like to cut out a shape from the negative space within a feature area to create another feature.  Eg. below are 2 feature layers the red outline is a polygon sitting underneath another polygon which is the green outline  I would like to create a feature layer polygon from the red line to the green line.  I have no idea how to do this and would greatly appreciate any advice.

Thanks in advance

Thank you so much @DavidPike .  I had looked at the Erase tool but hadn't quite figured it out.  I knew it would be simple 🙂
