Using Clipping Paths
Selecting clipping path items via the Select menu
You can also easily select all or portions of clipping paths by clicking Select > Clipping Paths.
The Select Clipping Path dialog box displays.
Within the dialog box you can choose to select only the Clipping Paths, only Objects Being
Clipped, or both. Thumbnails of the Clipping Path objects display in the window with an ID
number below them. Click the ID number and then click OK. The clipping path is selected in
the Composer window.
Tip: The Preferences button in the Select Clipping Path dialog box saves the current settings
as the default settings.
Releasing a clipping path
You can release a Clipping Path and return the objects to their original states by selecting the
Clipping Path and using the Shape > Release Clipping Path command. Attributes that were
ignored (such as the path's fill or stroke) become active again, but the clipping path container
and clipped objects remain grouped.
Changing the clipping path wireframe color
You can change the wireframe color assigned to a Clipping Path on the General tab of the Tools
> Options dialog box. The default color is gray. Click Edit Color to choose a different default
color.
