Clip External References and Blocks
You can specify clipping boundaries to display a limited portion of an external
reference drawing or block reference.
You can clip external references such as DGN, DWF, IMAGE, PDF underlays,
or block references. With a clipping boundary, you can determine the portions
of an external reference or block reference that you want to display by hiding
the redundant parts of the reference inside or outside the boundary.
The clipping boundary can be a polyline, rectangle, or a polygon with vertices
within the boundaries of the image. You can change the boundary of a clipped
image. When you clip a boundary, the objects in the external reference or
block are not altered; only their display is changed.
With the XCLIP, DGNCLIP, DWFCLIP, PDFCLIP, and IMAGECLIP commands,
you can control the following viewing options:
Control the visibility of the clipped area of the external reference or block
reference. When clipping is turned off, the boundary is not displayed and
the entire external reference or block is visible, provided that the objects are
on layers that are turned on and thawed.
