 <p>
   CSS Masking provides two means for partially or fully hiding portions of
   visual elements: masking and clipping.
 </p>
 <p>
   Masking describes how to use another graphical element or image as a luminance
   or alpha mask.
   Typically, rendering an element via CSS or SVG can conceptually described as if the element,
   including its children, are drawn into a buffer and then that buffer is composited
   into the element's parent.
   Luminance and alpha masks influence the transparency of this buffer before the
   compositing stage.
 </p>
 <p>
   Clipping describes the visible region of visual elements.
   The region can be described by using certain SVG graphics elements or basic
   shapes.
   Anything outside of this region is not rendered.

   Introduction
 </h2>
 <p>
   With CSS Masking it is possible to specify another graphics element, shape or file
   to be used as clipping region or an luminance or alpha mask for compositing the current object into the
   background.
 </p>
 <p>
   A mask is applied using the 'mask', 'mask-image' or 'mask-box-image' properties.
   The mask source may be defined using a <a>'mask element'</a> element referenced
   by the 'mask' property.
   Alternatively, for many simple uses, the 'mask-image' property may
   refer directly to graphical elements or images to be used as mask
   forgoing the need for an explicit <a>'mask element'</a> element. The
   'mask' property is also a shorthand for other masking properties.
   'mask-box-image' splits a mask image into 9 pieces. The pieces may be sliced,
   scaled and stretched in various ways to fit the size of the mask image area.
 </p>
 <p>
   The effect of applying a mask is as if the mask images or mask source elements are
   rendered into an off-screen image which has been initialized to transparent
   black.
   The graphical object to which the mask is applied
   will be painted onto the background through the
   mask, thus completely or partially masking out parts of the graphical
   object.
 </p>
 <p>
   Clipping defines a visible region of a visual element. The region can be specified with SVG <a>graphics element</a> or
   basic shapes. Everything outside of a region does not get rendered.
 </p>
 <div class="example">
   <div class=figure>
     <img src="images/luminance-mask.svg" width="655px" height="260px" alt="Example Mask">
     <p class=caption>
       A luminance mask (middle) is applied on a shape filled with a gradient (left). This results in a masked shape
       (right).
     </p>
   </div>
 </div>
 <h2 id="placement">Module interactions</h2>
 <p>This specification defines a set of CSS properties that affect the visual rendering of elements to which
   those properties are applied; these effects are applied after elements have been sized and positioned according
   to the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/visuren.html" title="Visual formatting model">Visual formatting model</a>
   from [[!CSS21]]. Some values of these properties result in the creation of a
   <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/visuren.html#containing-block" title="Visual formatting model">containing block</a>,
   and/or the creation of a <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/visuren.html#z-index" title="Visual formatting model">stacking
   context</a>.
 </p>
 <h2 id="values">Values</h2>
 <p>
   This specification follows the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/about.html#property-defs">CSS property definition
   conventions</a> from [[!CSS21]]. Value types not defined in this specification are defined in CSS Values and Units Module Level 3 [[!CSS3VAL]].
 </p>
 <p>
   In addition to the property-specific values listed in their definitions, all properties defined in this specification
   also accept the <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/cascade.html#value-def-inherit">inherit</a> keyword as their
   property value. For readability it has not been repeated explicitly.
 </p>
 <h2 id="terminology">Terminology</h2>
 <p>
   When used in this specification, terms have the meanings assigned in this section.
 </p>
 <dl>
 <dt id="TermClientBoundingRect"><dfn>bounding client rect</dfn></dt>
 <dd>
   <p>
     The union of all border boxes for the element that has an associated CSS layout box and is not
     in the <code>http://www.w3.org/2000/svg</code> namespace and its descendant elements. Or the
     object bounding box [[!SVG11]], if the element does not have
     an associated CSS layout box and is in the <code>http://www.w3.org/2000/svg</code> namespace
     (See <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/cssom-view/#dom-element-getboundingclientrect">getBoundingClientRect</a>
     [[CSSOM-VIEW]]).
   </p>
 </dd>
 <dt id="TermLocalCoordinateSystem"><dfn>local coordinate system</dfn></dt>
 <dt id="TermUserCoordinateSystem"><dfn>user coordinate system</dfn></dt>
 <dd>
   <p>
     In general, a coordinate system defines locations and distances on the current
     canvas. The current local coordinate system (also user coordinate system) is the
     coordinate system that is currently active and which is used to define how
     coordinates and lengths are located and computed, respectively, on the current
     canvas [[CSS3-TRANSFORMS]].
   </p>
   <p>
     For elements that have an associated CSS layout box, the current user coordinate system has its origin at
     the top-left corner of the <span class="term">bounding client rect</span> and one unit equals one CSS pixel.
     The viewport for resolving percentage values is defined by the width and height of the
     <span class="term">bounding client rect</span>.
   </p>
   <p>
     If the element does not have an associated CSS layout box and is in the <code>http://www.w3.org/2000/svg</code>
     namespace, the current local coordinate system has its origin at the top-left corner of the element's
     nearest viewport.
   </p>
 </dd>
 <dt id="TermObjectBoundingBoxUnits"><dfn>object bounding box units</dfn></dt>
 <dd>
   The <span class="term">bounding client rect</span> defines the coordinate system in which to resolve values, as
   defined in <a>object bounding box units</a> [[!SVG11]].
 </dd>
 <dt id="TermMask"><dfn>mask</dfn></dt>
 <dd>
   An off-screen image which has been initialized to transparent
   black.
   The graphical object to which the mask is applied
   will be painted onto the background through the
   mask, thus completely or partially masking out parts of the graphical
   object.
 </dd>
 <dt id="TermMaskSource"><dfn>mask source</dfn></dt>
 <dd>
   A mask defined by a <a>'mask element'</a> element.
 </dd>
 <dt id="TermClippingPath">clipping path</dt>
 <dd>
   A combination of the SVG elements <a>'path'</a>, <a>'text'</a>
   and <a>basic shapes</a> which serve as the
   outline of a (in the absence of anti-aliasing) 1-bit <a href="#TermMask">mask</a>,
   where everything on the "inside" of the outline is allowed to
   show through but everything on the outside is masked out. See 'clip-path'.
 </dd>
 </dl>
 <p>
   Definitions of CSS properties and values in this specification are analogous to definitions in CSS Backgrounds and Borders [[!CSS3BG]]. To avoid redundancy, this specification relies on descriptions and definitions of CSS Backgrounds and Borders. The following terms in CSS Backgrounds and Borders have the following meaning in this specification:
 </p>
 <table class="data" id="term-matching">
   <thead>
     <tr>
       <th>Term in [[!CSS3BG]]
       <th>Term in CSS Masking
     </tr>
   </thead>
   <tbody>
     <tr>
       <th>background images

     </tr>
     <tr>
       <th>background painting area
       <td>mask painting area
     </tr>

       <th>background-size
       <td>mask-size
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <th>background-position
       <td>mask-position
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <th>background positioning area
       <td>mask positioning area
     </tr>
     <tr>
       <th>border image area
       <td>mask box image area
     </tr>
   </tbody>
 </table>
 <h2>The Mask Rendering Model</h2>
 <p>
   The application of the 'clip-path', 'mask' or 'mask-image' properties to an element formatted with the CSS box model
   establishes a stacking context in the same way that CSS 'opacity' does, and all the element's descendants are rendered
   together as a group with the masking applied to the group as a whole.
 </p>
 <p>
   The 'mask' and 'mask-image' properties have no effect on the geometry of any element's CSS boxes.
 </p>
 <p>
   The compositing model follows the SVG compositing model [[!SVG11]]: first any filter effect is applied, then any
   clipping, masking and opacity. These effects all apply after any other CSS effects such as 'border'. As per SVG, the
   application of 'mask' or 'mask-image' has no effect on hit-testing.
 </p>
 <h3 id="layering">Layering Multiple Mask Images</h3>
 <p>The mask of a box can have multiple <span
 class=index>layers</span>. The number
 of layers is determined by the number of comma-separated values in the
 'mask-image' property. Note that a value of 'none' still creates
 a layer.
 See <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-background/#layering">Layering Multiple Background Images</a> [[!CSS3BG]].
 <p>The first layer is the layer closest to the user,
 the next one is painted behind the first, and so on. All mask images
 are transformed to alpha masks (if necessary) and combined by compositing
 on the <a href="#TermMask">mask</a>.
 <h3 id="MaskValues">Calculating mask values</h3>
 <p>
 A mask may be interpreted using one of two different methods with regards
 to calculating the mask values that will be multiplied with the target alpha
 values.
 </p>
 <p>
 The first and simplest method of calculating the mask values is to use the alpha
 channel of the mask source.
 In this case the mask value at a given point is simply the value of the alpha channel at that point.
 The color channels do not contribute to the mask value.
 </p>
 <p>
   The second method of calculating the mask values is to use the luminance of the mask source.
   In this case the mask value at a given point is computed from the color channel values and alpha channel value using
   the following procedure.
 </p>
 <ol>
 <li>Compute a luminance value from the color channel values.
   <ul>
     <li>
     If the computed value of 'color-interpolation' on the <a>'mask element'</a> element is 'linearRGB', convert the
   original image color values (potentially in the sRGB color space) to the linear
   RGB color space.
     </li>
     <li>Then, using non-premultiplied RGB color values, apply the
     luminance-to-alpha coefficients (as defined in the <a>'feColorMatrix'</a>
     filter primitive [[!SVG11]]) to convert the RGB color values to luminance
     values.
     </li>
   </ul>
 </li>
 <li>Multiply the computed luminance value by the corresponding alpha
 value to produce the mask value.</li>
 </ol>
 <p>Regardless of the method used, the procedure for calculating
 mask values assumes the content of the mask is a four-channel RGBA graphics
 object.
 For other types of graphics objects, special handling is required as
 follows.</p>
 <p>For a three-channel RGB graphics object that is used in a mask (e.g.,
 when referencing a three-channel image file), the effect is as if the object
 were converted into a four-channel RGBA image with the alpha channel
 uniformly set to 1.</p>
 <p>For a single-channel image that is used in a mask (e.g., when
 referencing a single-channel grayscale image file), the effect is as if the
 object were converted into a four-channel RGBA image, where the single
 channel from the referenced object is used to compute the three color
 channels and the alpha channel is uniformly set to 1.</p>
 <p class="note">Note that when
 referencing a grayscale image file, the transfer curve relating the
 encoded grayscale values to linear light values must be taken into
 account when computing the color channels.</p>
 <p class="note">Note that SVG <a>graphics elements</a> (e.g., <a>'circle'</a> or <a>'text'</a>)
 are all treated as four-channel RGBA images for the purposes
 of masking operations.</p>
 <p>The effect of a mask is identical to what would have happened if
 there were no mask but instead the alpha channel of the given object
 were multiplied with the mask's resulting mask values.</p>

 <p>This is a shorthand property for setting 'mask-box-image-source',
 'mask-box-image-slice', 'mask-box-image-width', 'mask-box-image-outset' and
 'mask-box-image-repeat'. Omitted values are set to their initial values.

 <p>
   After the mask-box-image given by 'mask-box-image-source' is sliced by
   the 'mask-box-image-slice' values, the resulting nine images are scaled,
   positioned, and tiled into their corresponding mask image regions
   in four steps as described in the section <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-background/#border-image-process">Drawing the Border Image</a> [[!CSS3BG]].
 <h2>Clipping paths</h2>
 <p>
   The clipping path restricts the region to which paint can be applied, the
   so-called clipping region.
   Conceptually, any parts of the drawing that lie outside of this region are not
   drawn.
   This includes any content, background, borders, text decoration, outline and
   visible scrolling mechanism of the element to which the clipping path is
   applied, and those of its descendants.
 </p>
 <p>
   An element's ancestors may also clip portions of their content (e.g., via
   their own 'clip' or 'clip-path' properties and/or if their 'overflow' property
   is not ''visible'').
   What is rendered is the cumulative intersection.
 </p>
 <p>
   If the clipping region exceeds the bounds of the UA's document window, content may be clipped to that window by the
   native operating environment.

 <p class=note>With this specification the 'clip' property is deprecated. Authors are encouraged to use the 'clip-path' property instead.
   UAs must support the 'clip' property.
 </p>
 <p>
   The 'clip' property applies only to absolutely positioned elements. In SVG, it applies to
   <a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG2/coords.html#EstablishingANewViewport">elements which establish a new viewport</a>,
   <a>'pattern element'</a> elements and <a>'marker element'</a> elements</td>. Values have the following meanings:
 </p>
 <dl>
   <dt>''auto''</dt>
   <dd>The element does not clip.</dd>
   <dt><var>&lt;shape&gt;</var></dt>
   <dd>
     <p>
       In CSS 2.1, the only valid &lt;shape&gt; value is: rect(<var>&lt;top&gt;</var>, <var>&lt;right&gt;</var>,
       <var>&lt;bottom&gt;</var>, <var>&lt;left&gt;</var>) where <var>&lt;top&gt;</var> and <var>&lt;bottom&gt;</var>
       specify offsets from the top border edge of the box, and <var>&lt;right&gt;</var>, and <var>&lt;left&gt;</var>
       specify offsets from the left border edge of the box. Authors should separate offset values with commas. User agents
       must support separation with commas, but may also support separation without commas (but not a combination), because
       a previous revision of this specification was ambiguous in this respect.
     </p>
     <p><dfn>&lt;top&gt;</dfn>,
       <dfn>&lt;right&gt;</dfn>, <dfn>&lt;bottom&gt;</dfn>, and <dfn>&lt;left&gt;</dfn> may either have a
       <var>&lt;length&gt;</var> value or ''auto''. Negative lengths are permitted. The value ''auto'' means that a given
       edge of the clipping region will be the same as the edge of the element's generated border box (i.e., ''auto'' means
       the same as ''0'' for <var>&lt;top&gt;</var> and <var>&lt;left&gt;</var>, the same as the used value of the height
       plus the sum of vertical padding and border widths for <var>&lt;bottom&gt;</var>, and the same as the used value of the width
       plus the sum of the horizontal padding and border widths for <var>&lt;right&gt;</var>, such that four 'auto' values result in
       the clipping region being the same as the element's border box).
     </p>
     <p>
       When coordinates are rounded to pixel coordinates, care should be taken that no pixels remain visible when
       <var>&lt;left&gt;</var> and <var>&lt;right&gt;</var> have the same value (or <var>&lt;top&gt;</var> and
       <var>&lt;bottom&gt;</var> have the same value), and conversely that no pixels within the element's border box
       remain hidden when these values are ''auto''.

 <p>The raw geometry of each child element exclusive of rendering properties
 such as 'fill', 'stroke', 'stroke-width' within a
 <a>'clipPath'</a> conceptually defines a 1-bit mask (with the possible
 exception of anti-aliasing along the edge of the geometry) which represents
 the silhouette of the graphics associated with that element. Anything outside
 the outline of the object is masked out. If a child element is
 made invisible by 'display' or 'visibility' it does not contribute
 to the clipping path. When the <a>'clipPath'</a> element
 contains multiple child elements, the silhouettes of the child elements are
 logically OR'd together to create a single silhouette which is then used to
 restrict the region onto which paint can be applied. Thus, a point is inside
 the clipping path if it is inside any of the children of the
 <a>'clipPath'</a>.</p>
 <p>For a given graphics element, the actual clipping path used
 will be the intersection of the clipping path specified by its
 'clip-path' property (if any) with any clipping paths on its
 ancestors, as specified by the 'clip-path' property on the
 elements
 which establish a new viewport. (See [[SVG11]])</p>
 <p>A couple of additions:</p>
 <ul>
   <li>The <a>'clipPath'</a> element itself and its child elements do
   <em>not</em> inherit clipping paths from the ancestors of the
   <a>'clipPath'</a> element.</li>
   <li>The <a>'clipPath'</a> element or any of its children can specify
   property 'clip-path'.<br /> If a valid 'clip-path' reference
   is placed on a <a>'clipPath'</a> element, the resulting clipping path is the
   intersection of the contents of the <a>'clipPath'</a> element with the
   referenced clipping path.<br />
   If a valid 'clip-path' reference is placed on one of the children of
   a <a>'clipPath'</a> element, then the given child element is clipped by the
   referenced clipping path before OR'ing the silhouette of the child element
   with the silhouettes of the other child elements.</li>
   <li>An empty clipping path will completely clip away the element that had the
   'clip-path' property applied.</li>
 </ul>
 <h3 id="clipPath-geometry">Clipping paths, geometry, and pointer events</h3>
 <p>A clipping path is conceptually equivalent to a custom viewport for
 the referencing element.  Thus, it affects the rendering of an element,
 but not the element's inherent geometry. The <span class=index>bounding client rect</span> of a clipped
 element (that is, an element which references a <a>'clipPath'</a>
 element via a 'clip-path' property, or a child of the
 referencing element) must remain the same as if it were not clipped.</p>
 <p>By default, <a>pointer events</a>
 must not be dispatched on the clipped (non-visible) regions of a shape.  For
 example, a circle with a radius of 10 which is clipped to a circle with a radius
 of 5 will not receive <span class="event-name">'click'</span> events outside the
 smaller radius. Later versions of this specification may define new properties to enable
 fine-grained control over the interactions between hit testing and clipping.</p>
 <h2 id="security">Security</h2>
 <h3 id="origin-restrictions">Origin Restrictions</h3>
 <p>
   External references to resources like <a>'mask element'</a> or <a>'clipPath element'</a>
   must not violate the same origin restrictions [[!CORS]].
 </p>
 <p>This restriction includes:</p>
 <ul>
   <li>Any images, either as content or via styling, that are not exposed with CORS</li>
   <li>Any tainted canvas</li>
   <li>Any cross-origin content referenced by ''xlink:href'' or &lt;use&gt;</li>
 </ul>
 <p>
   If content falls under this restriction, the resource must be rejected. The element is
   drawn as if the resource was not specified (i.e. the 'clip-path' or 'mask' property were
   set to ''none'').

 <h2>Conformance</h2>
 <h3 class="no-ref">Conformance to CSS Background and Borders</h3>
 <p>
   Some property and element definitions in this specification require an SVG 1.1 implementation [[!SVG11]]. UAs without
   support for SVG must not implement any of the following properties and elements: 'mask-type', 'clip-rule', <a>'clipPath element'</a> element, <a>'mask element'</a> element. For UAs without
   support for SVG, the 'mask' and 'clip-path' properties must neither support references to
   <a>'mask element'</a> elements nor to <a>'clipPath element'</a> elements.
