Question about masking strokes only

I am building a character that wears an all black uniform. I would like to see white strokes on the arms, but ONLY when they cross in front of another part of the body so the character stays readable.....How is this done in Anime Studio Pro?

That's a tough one ...
OK, I'd try this: create all parts with the uniform, put into a group layer, do the bone binding, duplicate, change the style in one of them to only show white outlines, set the black groupt as mask for the other group.
