does anybody know if we can make a crop region that is not rectangular?
like the one on the right in the attached image??

I'm just trying to make an enlarged plan view that excludes everything outside the wall, and my wall enclosure is not always rectangular, which i think is a very common thing??

You would think it's possible, but it's not :shock: ....yet. Crop Regions can only be rectangular at the moment. This has been expressed as a wishlist several times. For now, you'll have to "mask" the unwanted areas with white Filled Regions.

See the following post from last week:

You cannot. Maybe you can oversize the crop region and use Filled Region to exclude items.

remember to use a "no pattern" fill to cover the unwanted crop regions. I have read some threads about white solid regions exporting as black blobs in acad.
