Setting a DigitalPaint Clipping Region
Clipping is used by the LRasterPaint class to limit the output to a user-defined region. This can be done using the LRasterPaint::SetClipRgn function. To get the last clipping region set, call LRasterPaint::GetClipRgn. To offset a clipping region, call LRasterPaint::OffsetClipRgn.
