jQuery Drag/Resize with CSS Transform Scale

Question

I am applying a CSS transform (and the browser specific -webkit, -o etc):

transform: matrix(0.5 , 0 , 0, 0.5, 0 , 0);

to a div then using jQuery\'s draggable

Answer 1

For a long time I wonder why @GungFoo solution not working for me for Jquery Resizable but some people told it was worked. Finally I found out there are 4 points for using jQuery Draggable and Resizable with CSS Transform Scale:

1. Using @GungFoo solutions!
2. Using separate divs for draggable and resizable!
3. Using proper CSS Transform Origin for divs!
4. Using proper CSS Direction for divs!

Check some of this problems:

function resizeDiv(event, ui) {
        debugger;
        var changeWidth = ui.size.width - ui.originalSize.width; 
        var newWidth = ui.originalSize.width + changeWidth / 4; 

        var changeHeight = ui.size.height - ui.originalSize.height;
        var newHeight = ui.originalSize.height + changeHeight / 4; 

        ui.size.width = newWidth;
        ui.size.height = newHeight;

};
$('#box').resizable({
    minWidth: -($(this).width()) * 10,
    minHeight: -($(this).height()) * 10, 
    resize: resizeDiv
});

$('#box2').resizable({
    minWidth: -($(this).width()) * 10,
    minHeight: -($(this).height()) * 10, 
    resize: resizeDiv
});

$('#box3').resizable({
    minWidth: -($(this).width()) * 10,
    minHeight: -($(this).height()) * 10, 
    resize: resizeDiv
});

$('#box4').resizable({
    minWidth: -($(this).width()) * 10,
    minHeight: -($(this).height()) * 10, 
    resize: resizeDiv
});

.box{
  position:absolute;
  width:30px;
  height:30px;
  border:1px solid black;
  font-size:3pt;
  overflow:hidden;
  -webkit-transform:scale(4);
  direction:ltr;
}
#box{
  transform-origin: top left;
  top: 0;
  left:0;
}
#box2{
  transform-origin: bottom left;
  top: 250px;
  left:0;
}
#box3{
  direction:rtl;
  left: 250px;
  top: -10px;
}

    
     
    

 
True styles


 
Bad transform-orgin


 
Bad direction
