Clip Components
Use the Clip Components option to clip a pit component or dump component against a topography component.
You can clip either a pit or a dump against the topography but there are rules concerning exactly what the polygons have to be:
- The pit or dump must have only closed polylines.
- Mode 1 allows topography to have unclosed line provided they intersect at the same XY extent at every bench (all hitting the same rectangle).
- Mode 2 requires everything to be closed.
Instructions

or
On the Utilities menu, click Clip Components.
Pick the pit/dump component to clip.
Select the topography object in which to clip by.
The Create Component dialog displays for you to enter information for the new component that is created by the intersection.
