## Function Description:
This command is used to crop the display of a selected DGN underlay to a specified boundary. The clipping boundary determines the portion of a DGN underlay outside the boundary that is hidden. The visibility of the clipping boundary is controlled by the DGNFRAME system variable. The boundary you specify must be in a plane parallel to the DGN underlay.
