About CSS clip-path generator

Cut elements into triangles, hexagons, arrows, circles or any custom polygon by dragging points on a preview, then copy the clip-path value. Percent-based coordinates keep the shape responsive. Remember that clipped areas still exist, so shadows and borders get cut off as well.

How to use CSS clip-path generator

  1. Pick a shape such as polygon or circle.
  2. Drag the points on the preview to reshape it.
  3. Copy the clip-path CSS and apply it to your element.

Frequently asked questions

Why is my box-shadow cut off with clip-path?

Clip-path trims everything outside the shape, including shadows. Put the shadow on a parent wrapper, using filter: drop-shadow, so it follows the clipped outline.

Can I animate between two clip-path shapes?

Yes, if both shapes use the same function with the same number of points. The browser then moves each point smoothly during a transition.

Does clip-path change the space the element takes?

No. The element keeps its original box in the layout and only the visible area is cut. Clicks outside the visible shape are also ignored.
