Problem

Unable to clip WMS images
 
Get Error Message:  Raster image is currently reprojected  when trying to clip a WMS image or a raster image that has been reprojected.



Solution

XWMS images are reprojected. Currently reprojected images cannot be clipped.  There are 2 options to clip a WMS image.
 
Option 1:
 

·         Reference attach the DGN file into another DGN file as a reference. Then in Reference use the clip command to clip the reference file.

 
Option 2:

WMS can be clipped if it is re-projected by doing the following steps :

·         Double click WMS image name in Raster Manager.  This will bring up an Element Information box

·         Under Geometry > Geocoding change the column "Inherit GeoCS From Model" to Inherited

 

 

·         NOTE:  This will change the location of you WMS image in your DGN file

·         Clip the WMS.

·         Under Geometry > Geocoding change the column "Inherit GeoCS From Model" to Not Inherited
