Clipping a circle

KimberlyHamm — Wed, 09 Feb 2022 22:29:48 GMT

Hi!

I've watched several tutorials and still can't figure out why the clipping tool is not working for me! All I want to do is clip around the circle so that I can discard everything outside of the circle. I've attached a photo and I've tried all the options. Can anyone help?

Thanks!

looks like a graphic and not a polygon featureclass

The Clip Function will work but I think the Clipping Geometry parameter is the issue. I think you created those layers from the Distance and Direction tools and the output is not correct for the clipping geometry parameter. For the red circle, export it to a standalone feature class in your geodatabase and use that for the clipping geometry parameter instead. What is the result?

If you want to clip raster by drawing a graphics, you could use Extract by Mask (Spatial Analyst)—ArcGIS Pro | Documentation.
