I have a masked object above text. Now I want to cut the masked object so that I can use different colors for the divided paths in the text.


When I try using path-division command, it is dividing the text with the original object used in masking and not the masked object. This is what I was able to get . How to divide the text using this masked object (masked map)

One way to do that is to:


Cut away portions of the map with a top shape using 'difference' (Ctrl+-). The resulting map should look like the one masked but is already sliced into sections.
Break the map apart (Shift+Ctrl+K) and group it to keep the parts together; then
Right click map group, enter group, select and color the sections as desired.
