English term or phrase: Z clipping
In a manual for a calculator:

To use Z clipping, call TRIANGLE_P to create a Z clipping string (initialized at 255 for each pixels). You can then call LINE_P with appropriate z (0-255) values for each of the triangle vertexes and LINE_P will not draw pixels further than the already drawn pixels. ZString is automatically updated as appropriate.

How do we call Z clipping in Dutch? Tried to google it, but did not find.

Explanation:
De juiste Nederlandse term zou zijn: z-begrenzing, maar die wordt helemaal niet gebruikt. In het Nederlands worden dergelijke IT-termen gewoonlijk niet vertaald. Dus ik zou het laten staan.
