The clip attribute has the same parameter values as defined for the css clip property. Unitless values, which indicate current user coordinates, are permitted on the coordinate values on the <shape>. The value of auto defines a clipping path along the bounds of the viewport created by the given element.
As a presentation attribute, it also can be used as a property directly inside a CSS stylesheet, see css clip for further information.
