The 2-D canvas provides an api called draw image : context.drawImage(img,sx,sy,swidth,sheight,x,y,width,height); where sx is the position from where the image clipping starts .

I am trying to use webgl to render a 2D image using texImage2D. i wanted to check if there is a way to implement clipping with webgl.
I am using the following tutorial to render 2d images with webgl. http://webglfundamentals.org/webgl/lessons/webgl-image-processing.html
Original Image:
Clipping with drawImage(2D):
Clipping with webgl:
var gl,program,positionLocation,originalImageTexture,canvas;
var x = 10;
var y = 20;
function setupWebGL(){
var canvas = document.getElementById("canvas");
gl = canvas.getContext("webgl");
if (!gl) {
return;
}
// setup GLSL program
var program = createProgramFromScripts(gl, ["2d-vertex-shader", "2d-fragment-shader"]);
gl.useProgram(program);
// look up where the vertex data needs to go.
positionLocation = gl.getAttribLocation(program, "a_position");
texCoordLocation = gl.getAttribLocation(program, "a_texCoord");
var texture = gl.createTexture();
gl.bindTexture(gl.TEXTURE_2D, texture);
// lookup uniforms
var resolutionLocation = gl.getUniformLocation(program, "u_resolution");
textureSizeLocation = gl.getUniformLocation(program, "u_textureSize");
colorLocation = gl.getUniformLocation(program, "u_color");
// set the resolution
gl.uniform2f(resolutionLocation, canvas.width, canvas.height);
// Set the parameters so we can render any size image.
gl.texParameteri(gl.TEXTURE_2D, gl.TEXTURE_WRAP_S, gl.CLAMP_TO_EDGE);
gl.texParameteri(gl.TEXTURE_2D, gl.TEXTURE_WRAP_T, gl.CLAMP_TO_EDGE);
gl.texParameteri(gl.TEXTURE_2D, gl.TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER, gl.NEAREST);
gl.texParameteri(gl.TEXTURE_2D, gl.TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER, gl.NEAREST);
gl.enable(gl.BLEND);
gl.blendEquation( gl.FUNC_ADD );
gl.blendFunc(gl.SRC_ALPHA, gl.ONE_MINUS_SRC_ALPHA);
gl.disable(gl.DEPTH_TEST);
}
function draw() {
// use canvas to simulate an image
var image = document.createElement("canvas");
document.body.appendChild(image); // so we can see the source image
image.width = 200;
image.height = 150;
var ctx = image.getContext("2d");
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, image.width, image.height);
for (var py = 0; py < image.height; py += 25) {
for (var px = 0; px < image.width; px += 25) {
ctx.fillStyle = "rgb(" + (py / image.height * 255 | 0) + "," +
(px / image.width * 255 | 0) + "," +

ctx.beginPath();
ctx.arc(px + 12, py + 12, 10, 0, Math.PI * 2);
ctx.fill();
