Can I make a rectagle div
with a half cut out circle using CSS? The half circle should be transparent and let the background show through.
desired CSS shape :
HTML :
<div></div>
CSS :
div{
background : #448CCB;
width:300px;
height:300px;
}
In order to have the white cut out circle transparent and let the background show through it, you can use box-shadows
on a pseudo element to minimize markup.
In the following demo, the blue color of the shape is set with the box shadow and not the background-color
property.
