CAD drafting Clip Clouds by Cylinder 12 Command line: NPC_CLIP_CYLINDER, NPC_CLIP_CYLINDER_INV

 

The command clips a cloud by cylinder area set by central point and radius. The cylinder bases are collinear to the plane of the viewport. A cloud is clipped perpendicular to the viewport plane in the direction of view.

A cloud can be clipped in one viewport (source) with display of the result in the other viewport (target) specified by the user. When displaying the clip result in the target viewport, the same view will be set that was in the source viewport when performing the clip operation.

Command prompts:

Enter central point:

Specify the central point of the cylinder base circle.

Enter radius or [Invert]:

Specify the base radius.

Select view:

Specify the target viewport, in which to display the clip. This prompt is displayed in case there are several viewports in the model space.

As a result of the CAD software Clip Clouds by Cylinder 13 Clip by Cylinder (inside) command, the cloud area inside the cylinder will be clipped.

As a result of the CAD drawing Clip Clouds by Cylinder 14 Clip by Cylinder (outside) command, the cloud area outside the cylinder will be clipped.

Only display of the cloud in the target viewport is changed as a result of the command work, the cloud object itself is not changed. Display of the cloud in other viewports remains the same.
