Nonrectangular image clipping (masks)

[chipWrangler]

Hi,

is there any way to crop a resource to an arbitrary shape? The effect I want would be to load a resource into a drawview, draw a closed shape in the view, and clip the resource to that shape. In Flash I'd use a mask for this.

Thanks!

try using the non documented function clip() for draw view, it works for us in 3.4x

has info and example

I am trying to achieve the same type of effect as in this thread and the example does not work properly in 4.0 only in 3.4. Is this a bug in 4.0 or do I have to do something different?

This is the message I receive in the debug console.

Thanks In Advance!
