I'm not sure, but I don't think, this is possible yet. Maybe you could
hack and use Pd's internal messages with "cut" here. It might be
helpful, that you can read out the (x,y) coordinates of data
structures.

I'm quite sure, this isn't possible. You can "resize" an array, but
this will always delete elements from the end of the array.
