It appears that resetClip is more like resetTransform, and is just setting the clipping area back to the initial full coordinate space. ================================================================================ > #0 contributor@whatwg.org 2012-04-11 22:29:47 /c#dom-context-2d-resetclip > Comment: > Shouldn't there be a setClip() rather than a resetClip().

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Rejected Change Description: no spec change Rationale: Resetclip removes the clipping region, and setTransform() sets it back to the identity matrix. Not really the same functionality.
