Summary

The CP_WIPEOUT command in CADPower for BricsCAD, AutoCAD, ZWCAD and ARES Commander allows users to generate a WIPEOUT mask around a closed polygon with a defined buffer (offset) zone. This tool is particularly useful for hiding underlying objects in complex drawings while keeping annotations and key elements clearly visible.
