| clipLines {PBSmapping} | R Documentation |
Clips a PolySet, where each unique (PID, SID)
describes a polyline.
clipLines (polys, xlim, ylim, keepExtra = FALSE)
polys |
PolySet to clip. |
xlim |
range of X-coordinates. |
ylim |
range of Y-coordinates. |
keepExtra |
Boolean value; if TRUE, tries to
carry forward any non-standard columns into the result. |
For each discrete polyline, the function does not connect vertices 1
and N. It recalculates the POS values for each vertex, saving
the old values in a column named oldPOS. For new vertices, it
sets oldPOS to NA.
PolySet containing the input data, with some points added or
removed. A new column oldPOS records the original POS
value for each vertex.
