Clipping images

You can clip images so that only a portion of the image is visible in a drawing. The visible portion (or the invisible portion for inverted clips) can be in the shape of a rectangle or polygon.

Image clipping can be turned on an off. If you turn off clipping for an image, the entire image is visible provided that the image is on a layer that is on and thawed. The clipping information is retained however, and you can turn clipping back on at any time.

If you delete clipping from an image, the clipping is removed permanently but the image itself remains in the drawing.
