         2.* (POINT) first point of target frame
         3.* (POINT) opposite point of target frame, <ENTER>-new first pt.
         4.* (IND) source frame
         5.* (Y/N) confirm choice

Description
This command places and clips a drawing on the drawing sheet.  The drawing is
scaled at a specified scale.

If the drawing from which you wish to clip does not exist on the screen, you
must place it using the command \dpaut or \dpscl.  The drawing may be placed
anywhere on the screen, i.e., within or outside the drawing sheet frame.  If
you only wish to clip from the drawing but not include it in its entirety,
place it outside the plotting area, or erase it before sending the drawing
sheet to the plotter.

There are two methods to place and clip a drawing on the drawing sheet:
         1. Define a target frame followed by a source frame.
         2. Define a source frame followed by a target frame.

Specify which frame (source or target) you wish to define first.

Source Frame

If you select to define the source frame first, specify the first and opposite
points of the frame on the placed drawing to be clipped.  If you regret the
position of the first point specified for a frame, press <ENTER> before
specifying the opposite point.  This will allow you to relocate the first
point.  Then specify the desired scale.  If you want the same scale as the
source, press <ENTER>.

A rectangle representing the part of the drawing included in the source frame,
at the specified scale appears attached to the cursor.  Use the cursor to
specify the location of the drawing on the drawing sheet.  While you do this
the source frame will blink.  If you find that the size of the rectangle is
unsatisfactory you may press <ENTER> to specify a new scale.

In order to help you place the drawing you may change the "origin" of the
frame.  The "origin" is the point at which the rectangle is attached to the
cursor, i.e.  the relationship of the drawing to the cursor.  If you press
<Alt>+2 the position of the rectangle in relation to the cursor will change.
There are six possible locations:

         1 - lower-left corner of minimum enclosing rectangle
         2 - origin (0 0 0) of the drawing as saved
         3 - center point of minimum enclosing rectangle
         4 - upper-left corner of minimum enclosing rectangle
         5 - upper-right corner of minimum enclosing rectangle
         6 - lower-right corner of minimum enclosing rectangle

The drawing will appear at the specified location at the specified scale
enclosed by a green broken-lined rectangle.

You may continue to clip further drawings until you select another command.

Target Frame

If you select to define the target frame first, specify the first and opposite
points of the frame on the drawing sheet.  If you regret the position of the
first point specified for a frame, press <ENTER> before specifying the
opposite point.  This will allow you to relocate the first point.  Indicate
and confirm the frame of the drawing from which you intend to clip the
drawing.  Then specify the desired scale.  If you want the same scale as the
source, press <ENTER>.

A rectangle representing the target frame at the scale of the indicated source
drawing appears attached to the cursor.  Use the cursor to specify the area of
the source drawing to be included in the target frame.  While you do this the
target frame will blink.  If you find that the size of the rectangle is
unsatisfactory, you may press <ENTER> to specify a new scale.

The part of the source drawing enclosed by the rectangle on the cursor will
appear within the target frame at the specified scale enclosed by a green
broken-line.

In order to help you place the drawing you may change the "origin" of the
frame.  The "origin" is the point at which the rectangle is attached to the
cursor, i.e.  the relationship of the drawing to the cursor.  If you press
<Alt>+2 the position of the rectangle in relation to the cursor will change.
There are six possible locations:

1 - lower-left corner of minimum enclosing rectangle
2 - origin (0 0 0) of the drawing as saved
3 - center point of minimum enclosing rectangle
4 - upper-left corner of minimum enclosing rectangle
5 - upper-right corner of minimum enclosing rectangle
6 - lower-right corner of minimum enclosing rectangle

The drawing will appear at the specified location at the specified scale
enclosed by a green broken-lined rectangle.

You may continue to clip further drawings until you select another command.
