Working with CSS3 3D Transform Functions

CSS Web Development Front End Technology

Using with 3d transforms, we can move element to x-axis, y-axis and z-axis. Following are some of the methods of CSS3 3D Transform −

Below methods are used to call 3D transforms −

Sr.No.	Value & Description
1	matrix3d(n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n) Used to transforms the element by using 16 values of matrix
2	translate3d(x,y,z) Used to transforms the element by using x-axis,y-axis and z-axis
3	translateX(x) Used to transforms the element by using x-axis
4	translateY(y) Used to transforms the element by using y-axis
5	translateZ(z) Used to transforms the element by using y-axis

Following is the code for CSS3 3D transform functions −
