Can python help me control this line and others like it?&nbsp; I would happily accept its complete omission or its full inclusion.&nbsp; Thank you!</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 15 Mar 2011 17:46:22 GMT https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/controlling-features-which-move-in-and-out-of-a/m-p/178622#M13724 Anonymous User 2011-03-15T17:46:22Z Re: Controlling features which move in and out of a clip https://community.esri.com/t5/python-questions/controlling-features-which-move-in-and-out-of-a/m-p/178623#M13725 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Clip honors selections.
