The difference between line and polygon clipping is that the polygon clipper always clips against or along the 4 edges that too in succession.

Detailed answer

The line clipper does a small test to check whether the outside edges have crossed or not.

  • The line clipper only clips when necessary but the polygon clipper may clip even when not necessary.
  • Polygon clipper is an important function that the computer does all the time
  • Multiple polygons can result from a single polygon.
  • It is usually used for hidden line problems in graphic design.
