Hot Door CORE Forum

I'm having some trouble creating a clipping group with CORE. I have an Art group containing several paths, and I want to use the top closed path as a clipping mask. I set the group to become a clipping group like this:

Code:
clipGrp.setIsClipGroup(true);

bool isClip = clipGrp.isClipGroup();

The variable isClip is set to true, but the group is not in fact a clip group. Its ArtType is still a plain group and nothing is clipped. Is there another step I need to do?

I found code for the SDK and adapted that to CORE.

clipMask is the clipping path and objGrp is the group that contains all of the paths.

Code:
clipMask.reorder(hdi::core::PlaceInsideOnTop, &objGrp);

objGrp.setIsClipGroup(true);

clipMask.setAttribute(hdi::core::ArtAttrIsClipMask, true);
