CSS3 - 2d Transforms
2D transforms are used to re-change the element structure as translate, rotate, scale, and skew.
The following table has contained common values which are used in 2D transforms −
Sr.No. | Value & Description |
---|---|
1 | matrix(n,n,n,n,n,n) Used to defines matrix transforms with six values |
2 | translate(x,y) Used to transforms the element along with x-axis and y-axis |
3 | translateX(n) Used to transforms the element along with x-axis |
4 | translateY(n) Used to transforms the element along with y-axis |
5 | scale(x,y) Used to change the width and height of element |
6 | scaleX(n) Used to change the width of element |
7 | scaleY(n) Used to change the height of element |
8 | rotate(angle) Used to rotate the element based on an angle |
9 | skewX(angle) Used to defines skew transforms along with x axis |
10 | skewY(angle) Used to defines skew transforms along with y axis |
The following examples are shown the sample of all above properties.
Rotate 20 degrees
Box rotation with 20 degrees angle as shown below −
<html> <head> <style> div { width: 300px; height: 100px; background-color: pink; border: 1px solid black; } div#myDiv { /* IE 9 */ -ms-transform: rotate(20deg); /* Safari */ -webkit-transform: rotate(20deg); /* Standard syntax */ transform: rotate(20deg); } </style> </head> <body> <div> Tutorials point.com. </div> <div id = "myDiv"> Tutorials point.com </div> </body> </html>
It will produce the following result −
Rotate -20 degrees
Box rotation with -20 degrees angle as shown below −
<html> <head> <style> div { width: 300px; height: 100px; background-color: pink; border: 1px solid black; } div#myDiv { /* IE 9 */ -ms-transform: rotate(-20deg); /* Safari */ -webkit-transform: rotate(-20deg); /* Standard syntax */ transform: rotate(-20deg); } </style> </head> <body> <div> Tutorials point.com. </div> <div id = "myDiv"> Tutorials point.com </div> </body> </html>
It will produce the following result −
Skew X axis
Box rotation with skew x-axis as shown below −
<html> <head> <style> div { width: 300px; height: 100px; background-color: pink; border: 1px solid black; } div#skewDiv { /* IE 9 */ -ms-transform: skewX(20deg); /* Safari */ -webkit-transform: skewX(20deg); /* Standard syntax */ transform: skewX(20deg); } </style> </head> <body> <div> Tutorials point.com. </div> <div id = "skewDiv"> Tutorials point.com </div> </body> </html>
It will produce the following result −
Skew Y axis
Box rotation with skew y-axis as shown below −
<html> <head> <style> div { width: 300px; height: 100px; background-color: pink; border: 1px solid black; } div#skewDiv { /* IE 9 */ -ms-transform: skewY(20deg); /* Safari */ -webkit-transform: skewY(20deg); /* Standard syntax */ transform: skewY(20deg); } </style> </head> <body> <div> Tutorials point.com. </div> <div id = "skewDiv"> Tutorials point.com </div> </body> </html>
It will produce the following result −
Matrix transform
Box rotation with Matrix transforms as shown below −
<html> <head> <style> div { width: 300px; height: 100px; background-color: pink; border: 1px solid black; } div#myDiv1 { /* IE 9 */ -ms-transform: matrix(1, -0.3, 0, 1, 0, 0); /* Safari */ -webkit-transform: matrix(1, -0.3, 0, 1, 0, 0); /* Standard syntax */ transform: matrix(1, -0.3, 0, 1, 0, 0); } </style> </head> <body> <div> Tutorials point.com. </div> <div id = "myDiv1"> Tutorials point.com </div> </body> </html>
It will produce the following result −
Matrix transforms with another direction.
<html> <head> <style> div { width: 300px; height: 100px; background-color: pink; border: 1px solid black; } div#myDiv2 { /* IE 9 */ -ms-transform: matrix(1, 0, 0.5, 1, 150, 0); /* Safari */ -webkit-transform: matrix(1, 0, 0.5, 1, 150, 0); /* Standard syntax */ transform: matrix(1, 0, 0.5, 1, 150, 0); } </style> </head> <body> <div> Tutorials point.com. </div> <div id = "myDiv2"> Tutorials point.com </div> </body> </html>
It will produce the following result −
