Show Boundary

This option shows a set of raster images, blocks or external references in the enclosed area. (see “Set show boundary for a viewport” section).

The show boundary defines the visibility of objects in the current document. The original objects are not changed.

Setting of the clip boundary is achieved using the clipping contour.

Clipped blocks or external references, raster images and viewports can be edited as well as unclipped ones.
