Wipeouts are unique entities that can help you hide areas of your drawing. They display with the current background color, so the details behind the wipeout do not display or print.
Wipeouts are similar to other entities — you can copy, mirror, array, erase, rotate, and scale them, and they can be used in both model space and paper space.
If you want to print the wipeout entities located in a drawing, you must print to a raster-capable printer. Note that in some cases you may have unexpected results when printing drawings that contain wipeout entities, for example, if printing on colored paper.
Wipeouts are created using existing polygons, closed zero-width polylines made up of only line segments, or new polylines that you draw while using the Wipeout command.
The display of wipeouts varies depending on your version of CADdirect.
If your CADdirect version does not include raster image capability, wipeout entities display, but the details behind the wipeouts also display.
