Editing the Clipping Box

This is a blue box with corner handles that can be edited.

• Activation and display in Viewpoint inspectors: Perspectives, Parallel Views, Panoramas, VR objets, Animations.
• Entering an angle value in degrees in the numeric field pivots the box within the plane.

In 2D View

Change the view (above, front, right, left, rear) to define more than one clipping plane in the space (up to a maximum of 6 clipping planes).

• Edit the blue handles to define the clipping planes.

Elements outside the blue box are cut out of the scene.

When viewing from above, the rotation angle can also be defined graphically in 2D View.

NB: When elements are clipped, the shadows projected are adapted.
