Shortcut menu: Select the viewport to clip. Right-click in the drawing area
and choose Viewport Clip.
Summary
You can either select an existing object to designate as the new boundary, or
specify the points of a new boundary. The new boundary does not clip the
old boundary, it redefines it.
List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
Clipping Object Specifies an object to act as a clipping boundary. Objects
that are valid as clipping boundaries include closed poly-lines, circles, ellipses,
closed splines, and regions.
Polygonal Draws a clipping boundary. You can draw line segments or arc
segments by specifying points. The following prompt is displayed:
The descriptions of the Next Point, Arc, Close, Length, and Undo options
match the descriptions of the corresponding options in the PLINE command.
Delete Deletes the clipping boundary of a selected viewport. This option is
available only if the selected viewport has already been clipped. If you clip a
viewport that has been previously clipped, the original clipping boundary is
deleted, and the new clipping boundary is applied.
