Expand description

#LineClip

self.clipwith will clip self with a foreground object clipobj, returning a MultiLineString Result. Self can be a:

and clipobj has to be one of:

If clipobj is a line which is NOT closed, then it will be automatically converted to a closed polygon for the purposes of clipping. The original clipobj is NOT modified.

Regardless of self being lines or polygons, the result is a set of lines suitable for output to a plotter. Returning original source geometry is going to be a separate trait, which I’ll get around to once I need it.

maskwith is the inverse: only objects (or the portions thereof) which intersect with the maskobj will be returned.
