Clipper allows polygons to clip both lines and other polygons, but doesn't allow lines to clip either lines or polygons.<br><br> With closed paths, <a href="../../../Functions/Orientation.htm">orientation</a> should conform with the <a href="../../../Types/PolyFillType.htm">filling rule</a> that will be passed via Clippper's <a href="../../Clipper/Methods/Execute.htm">Execute</a> method.<br><br> </p>

+
+ <p class="Body"><b>Path Coordinate range</b>:<br> Path coordinates must be between &plusmn; 0x3FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF (&plusmn; <b>4.6e+18</b>), otherwise a range error will be thrown when attempting to add the path to the Clipper object. If coordinates can be kept between &plusmn; 0x3FFFFFFF (&plusmn; <b>1.0e+9</b>), a modest increase in performance (approx. 15-20%) over the larger range can be achieved by avoiding large integer math. If the preprocessor directive <a href="../../../PreProcessor/Defines.htm"><b>use_int32</b></a> is defined (allowing a further increase in performance of 20-30%), then the maximum range is restricted to &plusmn; 32,767. <br><br></p>
+
+
+ <p class="Body"> <b>Return Value:</b><br> The function will return false if the path is invalid for clipping. A path is invalid for clipping when:
+ <ul>
+
+ <li>it has less than 2 vertices</li>
+
+ <li>it has 2 vertices but is not an open path</li>
+
+ <li>the vertices are all co-linear and it is not an open path</li>
