boundary and the clipdepth. The ERASE (page 406) command cannot be used

to delete clipping boundaries.

Generate Polyline

Automatically draws a polyline coincident with the clipping boundary. The

polyline assumes the current layer, linetype, lineweight, and color settings.

Use this option when you want to modify the current clipping boundary using

PEDIT (page 767) and then redefine the clipping boundary with the new

polyline. To see the entire xref while redefining the boundary, use the Off

option.

New Boundary

Defines a rectangular or polygonal clipping boundary, or generates a polygonal

clipping boundary from a polyline.

Select Polyline Defines the boundary with the selected polyline. The polyline

can be open but must consist of straight line segments and cannot intersect

itself.

Polygonal Defines a polygonal clipping boundary with three or more points

that you specify for the vertices of a polygon.

Rectangular Defines a rectangular boundary with the points that you specify

for opposite corners.

Invert Clip Inverts the mode of the clipping boundary: objects are clipped

either outside the boundary or inside the boundary.

NOTE You can only create a new clipping boundary for a selected XREF underlay

when the old boundary is deleted.
