Is it possible to cut out an area of google photorealistic 3D tiles with a shapefile or specific polygon? I saw that we can cut it out with cartographic polygons, but how can use a specific shape (based on the city boundary) to clip the tiles?

Hi @mmdek ,
We don’t have this functionality yet, but have related improvements on our backlog (below).
Very interested to see the solution you come up with!

Suggested [here](https://community.cesium.com/t/cartographic-polygon/15450/5).

Currently the Cesium Cartographic Polygon spline is locked to Linear. Curves can make drawing out these splines much easier, quicker, and more natural looking. It would be great to be able to switch the mode.
@nithinp7 mentioned that the reason it's locked to linear is because polygons with straight lines are much easier/faster to rasterize on the fly. Rasterization of arbitrary splines would introduce a lot of complexity in the code, and may also make it impossible to cull tiles that are entirely within the selection.
So probably not an easy fix, but worth considering at some point.
