Clipping is one of the most crucial concepts of Computer Graphics - it is basically concerned with the process of removing the lines, or objects, or line segments that are present outside the viewing pane. There are various types of clipping including Line clipping, Point clipping, Text clipping, Area clipping, Exterior Clipping, and Curve Clipping each one with its own specifications. There are numerous prominent applications of clipping such as separating the targeted part of an image, performing drawing operations, identifying the visible and invisible area in the 3D object, and many more. Also, there is a clipping window which is nothing but the region against which an object is to be clipped and that has coordinates like (Xmin, Ymin) and (Xmax, Ymax). In this video, we'll discuss Clipping and its types in detail with the help of various interesting examples.
