gdmodule clipping

[John Hunter]

Does gd lib or gdmodule support clipping? I would like to set a clip
rectangle and when I issue drawing commands (like im.polygon) have
only the part of the polygon inside the clip rectangle displayed.

Thanks,
John Hunter

gd-2.0.15
gdmodule-0.42

AFAIK, gd doesn't support it natively. But since your clipping region seems to
be a rectangle, I suppose you could do this by creating a new image having the
size of your clipping region, draw in this image, then put it back in your main
image via image.copyTo(...)
