Clip Path Bae
Connect Clip Path Bae, a CSS clip-path tool, with Webflow to create custom geometric shapes directly in the Designer without writing code.
How to integrate Clip Path Bae with Webflow
Clip Path Bae creates custom geometric shapes within Webflow Designer without coding. Install from the Webflow Apps marketplace with one-click installation, then access it directly within Designer to apply clip-path shapes.
Use the Clip Path Bae app
After installation, use the app's controls to apply clip paths to images, divs, and other elements.
Capabilities:
- Pre-made shapes: Apply polygon, ellipse, or circle shapes to elements
- Custom SVG upload: Import SVGs from Figma or Illustrator (Safari has documented issues with complex SVG clipPath references — test thoroughly or use CSS polygon() instead)
- Automatic responsiveness: App converts coordinates to relative values, maintaining proportions across screen sizes
- CMS compatibility: Works with CMS-bound images in Collection Lists
Browser compatibility:
- Modern browsers support CSS clip-path with partial support in some versions
- Safari: Always include
-webkit-clip-pathvendor prefix alongside standard declarations - Chrome: Add transform:
translate3d(0, 0, 0); to force GPU compositing for better performance
Limitations:
- Rounded corners on polygon shapes require custom CSS outside the app. However, simple rounded rectangles can be achieved using
clip-path: inset()with the round keyword.
What you can build
Integrate Clip Path Bae with Webflow for geometric visual effects.
- Dynamic portfolio layouts: Create image galleries with custom geometric shapes (polygon, ellipse, circle) that automatically adjust as images change through CMS collections.
- Hero sections with custom shapes: Build landing page heroes where background images clip to geometric shapes, creating visual interest without image editing.
- Scroll-triggered reveals (advanced): Combine Clip Path Bae shapes with Webflow interactions or GSAP to animate clip paths on scroll. Note: Morphing between different shape types (circle to polygon) requires advanced custom code to convert shapes to matching coordinate formats — this is significantly more complex than basic shape application.
Mobile performance note: CSS clip-path can cause scrolling performance issues on mobile devices, particularly with complex polygon shapes or multiple clipped elements. The translate3d(0, 0, 0) workaround often resolves these issues. Test thoroughly on target mobile devices before production deployment.
Frequently asked questions
Clip Path Bae is a free app available to all Webflow users. However, advanced implementations requiring custom code (such as clip-path animations with GSAP) require a Webflow Site Plan to access custom code features.
Modern browsers provide support, but with important limitations. Firefox offers full support from version 54+. Chrome, Safari, and Edge provide partial support. Safari has the most significant challenges with SVG clipPath references — for Safari compatibility, always include the -webkit-clip-path vendor prefix and prefer CSS polygon() shapes over SVG references.
Yes. Apply clip-path shapes to images within Collection Lists or Collection Pages the same way you would static elements. The app's automatic coordinate normalization ensures shapes maintain proportions as CMS images change.
Yes, but with caveats. Basic animations (scale, reveal on scroll) work with Webflow interactions. Morphing between different shape types (e.g., circle to polygon) requires matching the number of coordinate points between start and end states, which requires custom JavaScript beyond what Clip Path Bae generates.
CSS clip-path eliminates the need for large transparent PNG files, reducing file sizes and improving load times. However, actual performance gains vary based on implementation complexity. Conduct testing for production decisions rather than relying on general principles.
Description
Clip Path Bae is a Webflow Designer app that applies CSS clip-path properties to elements through visual controls. It supports polygon, ellipse, and circle shapes, plus custom SVG uploads from Figma or Illustrator. The app automatically converts coordinates to relative values for responsiveness.
