Created attachment 51952 [details] Test case showing hidden box-shadow and generated content when using clip:auto; According to the CSS specifications, a clip value of "auto" should remove all clipping from an absolutely positioned element. http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/visufx.html#clipping "auto: The element does not clip." However, in WebKit browsers, a clip value of "auto" is treated the same as clip:rect(auto, auto, auto, auto) resulting in clipping that clips to all four edges of the box. This has the effect of hiding box elements that extend beyond the box border such as box-shadow and generated content.
