What is this?

A free CSS clip-path generator. Build polygon, inset, circle, or ellipse clip-paths visually by dragging handles on a live preview, then copy theclip-path value.

Polygon mode tips

  • Drag a point to move it.
  • Double-click a point to delete it (minimum 3 points).
  • Use the + button on a row to insert a midpoint after that point.
  • Pick a preset (Pentagon, Triangle, Trapezoid, Arrow, Star) as a starting shape.

When to use which shape

  • Polygon — angular shapes (arrows, chevrons, custom cut-outs).
  • Inset — rounded-corner rectangles; like border-radius but with full per-side control.
  • Circle / Ellipse — round avatars, vignette masks, hotspots.

FAQ

Does clip-path affect hit-testing?
Yes — clipped-out pixels are no longer hoverable / clickable. That makes clip-path a clean way to build non-rectangular buttons or interactive areas.
Browser support?
Excellent across all evergreen browsers. Safari historically needed -webkit-clip-path; this tool outputs the unprefixed form (modern Safari accepts it).
