clip

Deprecated
This feature has been removed from the Web standards. Though some browsers may still support it, it is in the process of being dropped. Avoid using it and update existing code if possible; see the compatibility table at the bottom of this page to guide your decision. Be aware that this feature may cease to work at any time.

The clip CSS property defines what portion of an element is visible. The clip property applies only to absolutely positioned elements, that is elements with position:absolute or position:fixed.

Warning: This property is deprecated. Use clip-path instead.

Initial value auto
Applies to absolutely positioned elements
Inherited no
Media visual
Computed value auto if specified as auto, otherwise a rectangle with four values, each of which is auto if specified as auto or the computed length otherwise
Animation type a rectangle
Canonical order the unique non-ambiguous order defined by the formal grammar

Syntax

/* Keyword value */
clip: auto;

/* <shape> values */
clip: rect(1px 10em 3rem 2ch);
clip: rect(1px, 10em, 3rem, 2ch);

/* Global values */
clip: inherit;
clip: initial;
clip: unset;

Values

<shape>
A rectangular <shape> of the form rect(<top>, <right>, <bottom>, <left>) or of the form rect(<top> <right> <bottom> <left>) (which is a more backwards compatible syntax) <top> and <bottom> specify offsets from the inside top border edge of the box, and <right>, and <left> specify offsets from the inside left border edge of the box — that is, the extent of the padding box.
<top>, <right>, <bottom>, and <left> may either have a <length> value or auto. If any side's value is auto, the element is clipped to that side's inside border edge.
auto
The element does not clip (default value). Note that this is distinct from rect(auto, auto, auto, auto), which does clip to the inside border edges of the element.

Formal syntax

<shape> | auto

where
<shape> = rect(<top>, <right>, <bottom>, <left>)

Examples

.dotted-border { 
   border: dotted;  
   position: relative; 
   width: 536px;
   height: 350px;
}

#top-left, #middle, #bottom-right {
   position: absolute;
   top: 0px;
}

#top-left {
   left: 360px;
   clip: rect(0px, 175px, 113px, 0px); 
}


#middle {
   left: 280px;
   clip: rect(119px, 255px, 229px, 80px); 
   /* standard syntax, unsupported by Internet Explorer 4-7 */
}

#bottom-right {
   left: 200px;
   clip: rect(235px 335px 345px 160px);
   /* non-standard syntax, but supported by all major browsers*/
}
