This topic describes how to define the clipping using various options.
On the context toolbar, select one of the following options to orient the
clipping in a desired direction:
Option
Description

Specify the position of the clipping precisely

Invert clipping

Tip:
You can add these commands to the action bar or Action Pad and use them anytime (even when the clipping is inactive, the clipping is not in edit
mode, or there is no clipping).
Use different handles in the 3D area to translate the clipping box or plane, and to resize
the clipping box.
You can also right-click in the 3D area and select Clipping > Clipping Position to resize and position the clipping.
