polygonClip Method

Clip a polygon to the planes of the clip plane set.

  • For a convex input polygon, the output is another convex polygon.
  • For a non-convex input, the output may have double-back edges along plane intersections. This is still a valid clip in a parity sense.
  • The containingPlane parameter allows callers within ConvexClipPlane set to bypass planes known to contain the polygon
