Creating ClipBox

[Andrey Shulyak]

Dear developers,

 

 is there a way to install (or change) the existing clipbox in View?

I tried resizing an existing clipbox using the method below, but to no avail.

gSDK->TaggedDataSet(hLayer, kTaggedDataContainerNNA_Internal23, kTaggedDataDoubleArrayTypeID, 1, 0, &getData)

 

In advance, thank you very much for your answer!

What exactly do you mean by clipbox? The clip cube, the cropped perspective frame, or something else?

Hi Joshua Benghiat,

Sorry, I meant clipbox.

Hi Joshua Benghiat,

 

 I meant The clip cube, the cropped perspective frame.

I can get it uses gSDK->TaggedDataGet(hLayer, kTaggedDataContainerNNA_Internal23, kTaggedDataDoubleArrayTypeID, 1, 0, &getData)

but i can't Set it.

@Andrey Shulyak Those are two different things.
 

The Clip Cube is the 3D cube that will create a red cut plane with intersecting solids. 

 

Cropped Perspective is the legacy perspective view that has four black corners defining the frame. 
 

Either way, your solution will use object or program variable constants. Best to stay away from anything NNA_internal unless you’ve been explicitly given a code snippet from an engineer.
