CAD drafting Clip Point Clouds by 3 Points of Rectangle 12 Command line: NPC_CLIP_RECT_ROTATED, NPC_CLIP_RECT_ROTATED_INV

The command creates a cloud clip along a rectangular frame defined by its three points, which determine the lengths of the sides and the angle of rotation of the frame. A rectangular frame is defined in the viewport plane. The cloud is clipped perpendicular to the viewport plane in the direction of view.

A cloud can be clipped in one viewport (source), with the result displayed in another viewport (target), specified by the user. When the clip result is displayed in the target viewport, the same view will be set that was in the original viewport during clipping operation.

Command prompts:

Enter first base point:	Set the first point of the rectangular clipping frame.
Enter second base point:	Set the second point of the rectangular clipping frame. The second point determines the angle of rotation of the frame and the length of one of its sides.
Enter diagonal point:	Set the third point of the rectangular clipping frame. This point determines the length of the other side of the frame.
Select view:	Specify the target viewport in which to display the clip. This prompt appears when there are multiple viewports in the model space.

As a result of the CAD software Clip Point Clouds by 3 Points of Rectangle 13 Clip by 3 Points (inside) command, the cloud area inside the rectangle frame will be clipped.

As a result of the CAD drawing Clip Point Clouds by 3 Points of Rectangle 14 Clip by 3 Points (outside) command, the cloud area outside the rectangle frame will be clipped.

Command clip only mapping of point cloud in the target view. The cloud remains unchanged in the rest of viewports.
