How to apply multiple transforms in CSS?

Question

Using CSS, how can I apply more than one transform?

Example: In the following, only the translation is applied, not the rotation.

li:nth         


        

Answer 1

You have to put them on one line like this:

li:nth-child(2) {
    transform: rotate(15deg) translate(-20px,0px);
}

When you have multiple transform directives, only the last one will be applied. It's like any other CSS rule.

Keep in mind multiple transform one line directives are applied from right to left.

This: transform: scale(1,1.5) rotate(90deg);
and: transform: rotate(90deg) scale(1,1.5);

will not produce the same result:

.orderOne, .orderTwo {
  font-family: sans-serif;
  font-size: 22px;
  color: #000;
  display: inline-block;
}

.orderOne {
  transform: scale(1, 1.5) rotate(90deg);
}

.orderTwo {
  transform: rotate(90deg) scale(1, 1.5);
}
