.. _auto_curves_clip:

*CLIP THE CURVES BASED ON EITHER X OR Y RANGES*
===============================================

Clips one or more curves by removing data points that fall outside specified X and/or Y axis ranges. Use this worker to window time-history or XY curves to a region of interest before further processing or comparison.

     - 
     - One or more XY curves (vector type) to be clipped; accepts multiple curves in a single pass.
   * - X Min
     - x_min
     - scalar
     - -1e20
     - 
     - Lower bound on the X axis — data points with X values below this threshold are discarded; defaults to -1e20 (no lower clipping).
   * - X Max
     - x_max
     - scalar
     - 1e20
     - 
     - Upper bound on the X axis — data points with X values above this threshold are discarded; defaults to 1e20 (no upper clipping).
   * - Y Min
     - y_min
     - scalar
     - -1e20
     - 
     - Lower bound on the Y axis — data points with Y values below this threshold are discarded; defaults to -1e20 (no lower clipping).
   * - Y Max
     - y_max
     - scalar
     - 1e20
