Transform

2. What is CSS transform?

2.1. The translate() Method


          To translate an element from its current position to another, the translate() method is used. The movement is based on the given X-axis and Y-axis within the given parameter.

          The translate() method requires two parameters. The first parameter is for the X-axis, while the second parameter is for the Y-axis. In the given code above, the div element is moved 50px to the right and 100px going down from its original position. If only 1 parameter is listed (ex. translate(50px);), it only moves the element in the X-axis. Below is an example code and the resulting output


div { transform: translate(50px,100px); }
