&lt;p&gt;This brief article discusses how to overcome V7 difficulties with clipped or masked references and rotating views.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;2004-09-16&lt;/em&gt; Updated for clarity. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="border-bottom:#cccccc 1pt solid;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In MicroStation /J, the clip boundary or clip mask boundary of a reference file is &lt;em&gt;view independent&lt;/em&gt; meaning that if the view is rotated the clip/mask boundary stays in it&amp;#39;s orignal orientation. The image below shows this quite nicely. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table cellpadding="6" border="0" style="width:100%;"&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td align="top" valign="top"&gt;&lt;img src="/askIngaPics/160Pic1.jpg" align="left" border="0" alt="" /&gt; &lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To overcome this all you got to do is use this keyin and identify the reference file:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;reference clip rotate on|off|toggle&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Note, this command only works on 2D files. (With thanks to &lt;em&gt;Andrew Bratcher&lt;/em&gt; for pointing this out.) &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;table cellpadding="6" border="0" style="width:100%;"&gt;
&lt;tbody&gt;
&lt;tr&gt;
&lt;td align="top" valign="top"&gt;&lt;img src="/askIngaPics/160Pic2.jpg" align="left" border="0" alt="" /&gt; &lt;/td&gt;
&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Note for V8 users:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In MicroStation V8 the clip and mask boundaries of a reference are view dependent. This means that there is no need for the above keyin since the boundaries will be honoured on a view that&amp;#39;s rotated. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;On the other hand, if you were to save a V8 file back down to V7, it would not inherit the view dependent feature and you will therefore have to invoke the keyin noted above inorder to rotate the clip/mask boundaries with your view. &lt;/p&gt;
