Clipping is cutting away sections of a model at one or more selected slices. On one side of each selected slice, the model is removed, revealing the image of each selected slice and the rest of the visible model.

To turn clipping on:

1. On the Display tab of the Models panel, right-click the model's name in the list.

   

2. A drop-down menu appears. Select Clipping.

To control clipping:

1. Select the Clip tab of the Models panel.

   

2. Select which side of a slice to clip the model on, as follows:

   Color	Slice	+ means:	- means:
   red	Axial slices	Superior	Inferior
   yellow	Sagittal slices	Right	Left
   green	Coronal slices	Posterior	Anterior

   Click + or - to select which side of each slice to clip on.

In the sample below, the right-superior-posterior part of the cortical surface has been clipped.
