The element is constructed by lines defining&nbsp;different distances from the front of the pile wall. I have made a shape (both complex and simpel). A shape that has many bends and corners,&nbsp;</p> <p>My problems is that the clipping is not working - what am I doing wrong? Are there any limitations to the use of a element? If I make a much smaller and simpler shape I can get it to Work. But it will take me hours to clip the wall if I have to do the clipping that way.</p> <p>Hope someone can help me!</p> <p>I am using V8i SS3. Do I need Descartes?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
