Based on your query, it appears you are asking about the DVIEW (Dynamic View) command in CAD software (such as AutoCAD or BricsCAD), specifically focusing on its Clip option, possibly mentioned in a tutorial or specific plugin context. What is DVIEW?
Definition: DVIEW (alias DV) stands for “Dynamic View.” It is a command used to create parallel projections or perspective views of a 3D model.
Purpose: It allows you to visualize a 3D scene from a specific “camera” perspective, aiming at a “target” point.
DVIEW “Clip” FunctionalityThe CLip option within DVIEW enables you to place invisible walls (clipping planes) in front of or behind your camera to cut off, or obscure, parts of the model.
Front Clipping: This obscures objects located between the camera and a specified front plane. It is useful for looking inside a model, such as seeing inside a house while standing “outside”.
Back Clipping: This obscures objects behind a specified rear plane, useful for removing unnecessary background elements.
How it works: Clipping planes are positioned perpendicular to the line of sight between the camera and the target. How to use (General Steps): Type DVIEW and press Enter. Select objects or use the default DVIEWBLOCK. Select the CLip option. Choose Front or Back. Specify the clipping distance. Key Tips and Related Tools
Camera/Target Points: You can use POints to define the camera (eye) and target (look-at) points, often utilizing .xy filters to set Z-coordinates (elevations) for 3D views.
Twist: The Twist option lets you rotate the view around the line of sight.
Removing Clipping/Twist: If a view becomes distorted, you can turn off clipping or reset the Twist to 0 to restore the normal view.
If you are looking for information on a specific tool called “BenDviewClip” (perhaps a lisp routine or plugin), I do not have specific data on that tool name in my current search results. It is highly likely the query refers to the standard DVIEW Clipping process.
