Is there anyway to Clip Terrains in Carrara 6Pro? Most other apps allow you to clip the Top or Bottom of a Terrain off. For me I am making a Distinctive shape of a State with a Terrain and I need to clip the bottom off that has those 4 pesky corners, so that the State's shape is all that remains.
Thanks ,

Alpha mask, or transparency shader in an elevation channel.

Thanks for that Input Patrick, I will probably have to do just that. They really need to add a Terrain Clip function, it would make some things so much easier.
