## Syntax

```sqf
[vector, min, max] call BIS_fnc_clampVector
```

**Parameters:**

- `vector`: [Vector3D](../topics/Vector3D.md) - (Optional, default [0,0,0]) the vector to be clamped
- `min`: [Number](../topics/Number.md) - (Optional, default 0)
- `max`: [Number](../topics/Number.md) - (Optional, default 0)

**Returns:** [Vector3D](../topics/Vector3D.md) - the clamped *vector*
