CLIP x1,y1 TO x2, x2

The CLIP instruction allows you to delimit the area in which the graphics are actually drawn. In general, the area corresponds to the entire surface of the screen (0,0)-(SCREEN WIDTH-1,SCREEN HEIGHT-1). However, it is possible to limit the drawing to a sub area, to ensure that the area outside this crop area is not altered or modified. The area is bounded by the coordinate (x1, y1) to the coordinate (x2, y2). If components are omitted, the screen limits will be used.

  CLIP 42,42 TO 84,84
