Note:

Options within the command

ON
Turns On the clipping boundary that was turned Off by the OFF option.

The area outside the clipping boundary is hidden from the view.

OFf
Turns Off the clipping boundary so the selected image is fully visible again. The clipping boundary is saved, until it is deleted, and it can be turned on again with the ON option.
Invert
Inverts the clipping mode so that the image is clipped either outside or inside the specified boundary.
Note: The Misc section of the Properties panel also allows you to turn the clipping On and Off, and to invert it.
Delete boundary
Erases the clipping boundary from the selected image without prompting or warning you.
New boundary

Allows you to add a clipping boundary to all selected entities.

Delete old boundary(s)?
This option appears in Command line only when an existing boundary is detected.
Yes
Deletes the previous boundary(s).
No
Exits the command.
Select polyline
Allows you to choose any open or closed entity made from polylines, such as splines, polylines, rectangles, donuts, and polygons. While the polyline does not need to be closed, it cannot cross over itself.
Polygonal
Creates a non-rectangular clipping boundary, with a minimum of three sides.
Undo
Undoes the last polygonal segment.
Rectangular
Creates a rectangular clipping boundary.
