title: Using clipRect - explanation
body: <pre><code>public class POCII extends Activity { 
  
      myView mv = new myView(this); 
  
      @Override 
      public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { 
          super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); 
          setContentView(mv); 
      }
  }
  
  
  class myView extends View { 
  
      public myView(Context context) { 
         super(context); 
      } 
  
      @Override 
      public void onDraw(Canvas canvas) { 
  
          Paint paint = new Paint(); 
  
          canvas.drawRect(0,0,100,100, paint); 
          canvas.clipRect(0,0,50,50);
      } 
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My question is, shouldn't the above code draw a rectangle and then crop the top left portion? The rectangle is not getting cropped.</p>
  
  <p>Please explain what clipRect does. What is it actually clipping? Does it clip in the form of a rectangle, given the co-ordinates? If so, Why is the above code not working?</p>
