Document Classes ⇒ PSTricks over the borders

[Bozack]

Hi, I'm trying to make PSTricks do something smart for me, but it doesn't really work out as planned...

I need to make a figure sketching some interference between two wave-sources. To make a view of the waves, I draw circles with the command

Right now it looks like:

but I'd like the pspicture to only draw inside the rectangle I've defined it to be. Is this possible?

My code for the picture is:

Just use the pspicture* environment. For the series of concentric circles take a look at the multido package. You don't have to include it yourself because it is loaded by PSTricks automatically.

Thank you

I'll take a look at the multido package too!
