background-clip - CSS | MDN

background-clip

Baseline Widely available *

The background-clip CSS property sets whether an element's background extends underneath its border box, padding box, or content box.

Try it
background-clip: border-box;
background-clip: padding-box;
background-clip: content-box;
background-clip: text;
color: transparent;
text-shadow: none;
<section id="default-example">
  <div id="example-element">This is the content of the element.</div>
</section>
#example-element {
  background-image: url("/shared-assets/images/examples/leopard.jpg");
  color: white;
  text-shadow: 2px 2px black;
  padding: 20px;
  border: 10px dashed #333;
  font-size: 2em;
  font-weight: bold;
}

The background is always drawn behind the border, so background-clip: border-box has a visual effect only when the border is partially opaque or has transparent or partially opaque regions. Also, the background-clip: text property has little to no visual effect if the text is fully or partially opaque.

Note: Because the root element has a different background painting area, the background-clip property has no effect when specified on it. See "The backgrounds of special elements."

Note: For documents whose root element is an HTML element: if the computed value of background-image on the root element is none and its background-color is transparent, user agents must instead propagate the computed values of the background properties from that element's first HTML <body> child element. The used values of that <body> element's background properties are their initial values, and the propagated values are treated as if they were specified on the root element. It is recommended that authors of HTML documents specify the canvas background for the <body> element rather than the HTML element.

Syntax

Values
border-box

The background extends to the outside edge of the border (but underneath the border in z-ordering).

padding-box

The background extends to the outside edge of the padding. No background is drawn beneath the border.

content-box

The background is painted within (clipped to) the content box.

text

The background is painted within (clipped to) the foreground text.

border-area

The background is painted within (clipped to) the area painted by the border, taking border-width and border-style into account but ignoring any transparency introduced by border-color.

Accessibility

When using background-clip: text, check that the contrast ratio between the background color and the color of the text placed over it is high enough that people experiencing low vision conditions will be able to read the content of the page.

If the background image does not load, this could also lead to the text becoming unreadable. Add a fallback background-color to prevent this from happening, and test without the image.

Consider using feature queries with @supports to test for support of background-clip: text and provide an accessible alternative where it is not supported.
