Clip Images
 
 
 

You can define a region of an image for display and plotting by clipping the image. The clipping boundary must be a 2D polygon or rectangle with vertices constrained to lie within the boundaries of the image. Multiple instances of the same image can have different boundaries

To clip an image

  1. Turn on the image boundaries using the ClippingEnabled property
  2. Specify the clipping boundary and perform the clip using the ClipBoundary method. This method takes one value as input: a variant array of 2D world coordinate system coordinates specifying the clipping boundary of a raster image.
