+
+ With this method you can specify the destination coordinates and the
+ size of area to copy which will be the same for both the source and
+ target DCs. If you need to apply scaling while copying, use
+ StretchBlit().
+
+ Notice that source DC coordinates @a xsrc and @a ysrc are interpreted

+ Copy from a source DC to this DC possibly changing the scale.
+
+ Unlike Blit(), this method allows to specify different source and
+ destination region sizes, meaning that it can stretch or shrink it
+ while copying. The same can be achieved by changing the scale of the
+ source or target DC but calling this method is simpler and can also be
+ more efficient if the platform provides a native implementation of it.

+ and axis direction.

@class wxDCClipper

+ @note Unlike other similar classes such as wxDCFontChanger, wxDCClipper
+ currently doesn't restore the previously active clipping region when it
+ is destroyed but simply resets clipping on the associated wxDC. This
+ may be changed in the future wxWidgets versions but has to be taken
