EFFECT

A RESTORE MODELLING CLIPPING VOLUME element is inserted in the open structure after element pointer or replaces the element indicated by element pointer, depending on edit mode. Element pointer is updated and points to the RESTORE MODELLING CLIPPING VOLUME structure element.

This function allows the parent structure clipping volume to be reinstalled after a call to a child structure.
