FAQ Frequently Asked Questions

Are the generated CSS clip paths compatible with all browsers?
Clip path support is excellent in modern browsers but may need fallbacks for older browsers. The tool typically provides vendor prefixes and fallback suggestions for broader compatibility.
Can I animate clip path changes?
