This article will take you to understand CSS3 clip-path (clipping path) and introduce how to use clip-path to achieve dynamic area cropping. I hope it will be helpful to everyone!
I visited CodePen today and saw such an interesting effect:
CodePen Demo -- Material Design Menu By Bennett Feely
Website: https://codepen.io/bennettfeely/pen/fHdFb
There are still some points worth exploring and learning about this effect. Let’s take a look. Get up and take a look.
How to achieve such a similar effect?
First of all, think about it, if you were asked to achieve the above effect, what would you do?
Here I simply list some possible methods:
shade box-shadow
-
gradient radial-gradient
Scale transform: scale()
Quickly go through one by one.
Use box-shadow to achieve
If you use box-shadow
, the code is roughly as follows:
<div class="g-container"> <div class="g-item"></div> </div>rrree
The core is:
The outer layer has a mask set with
overflow: hideen
When the inner element hovers, implement a
box-shadow : 0 0 0 0 #fff
tobox-shadow: 0 0 0 420px #fff
Change
The effect is as follows:
The overall animation is simulated, but its most fatal problems are two:
When our mouse leaves the circle, the entire animation The animation begins to proceed in reverse, and the white area begins to disappear. If we want to perform button operations, it cannot be completed.
Elements hidden within the rectangle after the animation is expanded are not easy to place.
So, box-shadow
looks good, but I can only give up.

Use gradient radial-gradient to achieve
Below we use radial gradient radial-gradient
Add CSS @property, you can also restore the above effect:
.g-container { position: relative; width: 400px; height: 300px; overflow: hidden; } .g-item { position: absolute; width: 48px; height: 48px; border-radius: 50%; background: #fff; top: 20px; left: 20px; box-shadow: 0 0 0 0 #fff; transition: box-shadow .3s linear; &:hover { box-shadow: 0 0 0 420px #fff; } }
<div class="g-container"></div>
By controlling the animation effect of the radial gradient, when hovering, the original small circle background becomes a large circle background. The effect is as follows:
- Because it is a change in the background, the mouse does not need to hover over the small circle, it only needs to enter the range of the div, and the animation will start. , this is obviously wrong
- Similar to the first
box-shadow
method, the DOM of the navigation element hidden under white is not easy to place
The code of the above Demo -- CodePen Demo -- radial-gradient zoom in animationWebsite: https://codepen.io/Chokcoco/pen/RwZOqWbemmm, there is another method, by scaling
transform: scale(), there will be certain problems, so I won’t continue to expand here.
- The mouse must hover over the circle to start the animation, and the mouse can be moved after the expansion. Move freely within the range without retracting the animation effect
- After the animation is expanded, the placement of the DOM inside should not be too troublesome. It is best if you can control the display and hiding of the content inside without using Javascript.
dynamic area cropping.
In my article --How to implement overflow: hidden without using overflow: hidden? , introduces several ways to clip elements in CSS, and among them, the most suitable one to use this effect is -- clip-path.
Usingclip-path, the dynamic clipping function can be very well implemented, and the code is also very simple:
@property --size { syntax: '<length>'; inherits: false; initial-value: 24px; } .g-container { position: relative; width: 400px; height: 300px; overflow: hidden; background: radial-gradient(circle at 44px 44px, #fff 0, #fff var(--size), transparent var(--size), transparent 0); transition: --size .3s linear; &:hover { --size: 450px; } }
<div class="g-container"></div>We only need to use
clip -path, at the beginning, use
clip-path: circle(20px at 44px 44px) to cut a rectangular div into a circle. When hovering, expand the radius of the cutting circle to the entire rectangular range.
这样,我们就能完美的实现题图的效果,并且,内置的 DOM 元素,直接写进这个 div 内部即可。
<div class="g-container"> <ul> <li>11111</li> <li>22222</li> <li>33333</li> <li>44444</li> </ul> </div>
效果如下:

I got this question the other day. My first thought is: weird question! Specificity is about selectors, and at-rules are not selectors, so... irrelevant?
