Locked candidates

When all of a digit's places in one region lie inside another region, the rest of that other region cannot hold it.

Look at a box where a digit can go only in cells of one row. The digit must then be in that box on that row, so remove it from the row's cells outside the box. The same holds with columns, and with a row whose places all lie in one box.

In hints

The hint first gives a direction, a box or a row. Then blue ground marks the region, blue marks where the digit can still go, and orange strikes remove the candidates in the other region.
