The biggest difference between these properties and the transform property is that the transform each function is applied in order where it is easier to work with 3D transformations as you can rotate after translate or the other way around. But this will be useful for most use cases.
CSS used to be like this when we used to care about IE. Nowadays the majority of browsers are Chromium, and the ones that aren't also implements the features pretty quickly. So it won't be that long until 95%+ coverage
@@wallacesantos0 It's not just IE. There are many user who simply don't or can't update their browsers. Chrome OS devices stop updating Chrome at certain point and those users are stuck on an older version. Each model has an end of life cycle where updates just cease. Android models also have a limit on what versions of Chrome and Firefox are supported.
i still use transform because you can actually use both transform: translate and the standalone translate, and they overlap without overriding, which allows you to define an x translate and later work on the y without having the need to reference the x once again, this makes things way more convenient. if you do transform: translateY(-50%); and in another class selector translate: -100% 0; both horizontal and vertical translates will be effective, if you only use one of those, then you will have to know the x and y translate every time. This basically works as an offset translate.
I agree with your opinion, we should use the old transform for translate property and use standalone properties for the other to avoid any conflict if we were using any CSS Framework.
Mind blown. I use the transform property a lot, especially on .svg. I've decided to put in a warning to only use updated browsers. People actually still use IE.. not Edge but IE. WHY???
I will never believe the people that would find my projects would be using ie, this browser is digita hazard. just the idea of using ie gives me headaches
Kyle my man, your content is already super interesting. The title of this video is unnecessary clickbait in my opinion. New web devs: this is a VERY new feature in CSS so it won't support a vast majority of browsers. It's great for small personal projects, but don't go using these for around 3-4 more years in enterprise production code. Love your content as always - though maybe lay off the clickbait a little?
From caniuse, the properties are at about 80% coverage for the userbase. If you look at the title from a biased personal opinion, it makes sense - I too would rather use these new props instead of transform, even more in combination with animations. So from a objective point of view, the title is clickbait, transform is not going to be replaced entirely. From a subjective pov it's understandable and fine imo.
@@NoeruCranel Of course it's understandable from a subjective POV: that's what the 'subjective' part of it is there for. But even caniuse won't give you proper estimates. If you're not in the US or want your site to be accessible to the general public - then you've gotta account for the vast number of budget phones that aren't updated regularly. I'm from India, which means I have to assume 99% of my users will have the equivalent of an iPhone 6 XD
This is amazing. I was struggling to create a slime that has some animations on my portfolio and, since new transform properties overwrite preexistentes ones, I had to limit my slime’s animation. With the these new features, I can go back and implement what I wanted. I didn’t know you could fix that issue with css variables
Hey, I was just wondering about this, do you know what Browsers are compatible with this? I'd really appreciate it, because can't find anything that says what Browsers are compatible?
The transform is more powerful. The individual translate, rotate, scale simply optimise a common case. With transform you have full control over the transform matrix. If _all_ you want to do can be accomplished by scale, or rotate, or translate, then fine. But note that with translate you can specify the order in which the transforms are applied. And you can apply transforms multiple times. For example: dialog.b { transform: translate(-100px) rotate(45deg) translate(100px) rotate(-45deg); } dialog.c { transform: rotate(45deg) translate(-100px) rotate(-45deg) translate(100px); } These end up with the dialog not begin rotated, merely translated. Where it ends up is different for each, since rotation and translation do not commute. And if you translate before scaling vs afterwards (can't remember which way round it is as I write this), then the translation is scaled too. One way around, a 100px translate and a 2x scale will result in the element being twice as large but translated 100px; the other way around it will be 2x scaled but translated 200px. This all goes back to the venerable days of the Postscript imaging model, which is the granddaddy of modern 2D drawing APIs.
That is the solution to a really big problem i had with my website. I needed to center a box on the screen (using translate -50% YES I KNOW FLEXBOX IS BETTER BUT I COULDNT USE IT BECAUSE OF OTHER STUFF) and also make it bigger on hover. I wrapped all that in a transition and... it transitioned the translate too. Thats a really big thing for me! Thanks soo much wds!
That cleaned my animations a lot, thanks. Still have the chrome, machine specific, artifacting happening but I'm going to call 1 out of 5 test machine not something to worry about.
The problem with adopting new CSS changes is browser compatibility. Wouldn't you need to update to a new browser version that supports these new CSS properties? Not everyone updates their browser every time a new version comes out or every time CSS gets a change and update, so I'm a bit hesitant on adopting this at the moment.
Thank you very much! Though I do have a question regarding the *order* of these properties For instance if you apply this to a : transform: translate(-50%, -50%) scale(105%); It wouldn't give the same result as: transform: scale(105%) translate(-50%, -50%) So does the same rule apply with these newly added CSS properties?
@@CottidaeSEA They're different, because the translate is dependent on the size of the object. It moves by 50% of its size, so if the size increases the distance will, too. But not if the size is increased after the movement.
You make css so easy. Dude, awesome explanations. Do you have a video about rems vs pixels or something like that? I had some troubles with that in an interview so Im studying it again now.
I’m seeing minimal documentation and no support (yet) other than Firefox. 1. Anyone know when exactly these properties dropped? 2. Anyone able to track down solid docs?
5:40 actually you can animate custom properties but only after u define their type. example: @property --rotate { syntax: ''; inherits: false; initial-value: 0deg; }
We could solve the example 2 before but It's a pain. You basically need a wrapper for each animated transform property you and it become tricky with 3d perspective
Really love this, but mainly for transitioning, animating properties separately. Last example is perfectly possible by using the old transform as well though. Biggest concern I have: how do you specify the order of transformations?
Hey Kyle. I've noticed in several of your videos that you blink excessively. I used to have the same problem and it turns out it was very dry eyes, but unfortunately I let it go for too long and ended up giving myself astigmatism. I was able to fix my dry eyes by taking Omega 3 supplements and moisturizing eye drops when they get really bad. Maybe you should try that out before you end up with astigmatism.
First of all you can animate css variables (have to use CSS.registerProperty or @property). And the secons thing: in transform the order of translate and scale matters. How is it solved with new properties? And how do they interact with transform itself if I use all 4 of them?
This is amazing, exactly the thing I was fighting against not too long ago. Is there a way to "polyfill" this into older browsers? I read someone talking about a web pack.
Hi ! Can you pls answer for some important questions for me ? 1) What the monitor u use ? (inches) 2) What the scaling for display u use? P.S. Sorry for my English ( I am from Ukraine
Thanks for sharing Does the new Scale and translate work inside bootstrap card class? The old ones have issue when element is placed inside bootstrap card class Thanks again
The transform property allows you to specify an order. Doing a translate followed by a rotate is not the same as doing the rotate first. The new properties are less useful because they presume one order. Your claim about animations is misleading: you've stated that you cannot animate variables, but you left out that you can absolutely animate the transform property itself.
Hi bro, this is quite dangerous at this moment as the latest browers are screwed-up. After defining a series of transformation on a class, e.g. ".box {}" and the ".box::before", if then if i did a hover on the ".box" class, the hover effect happens not the original class but on class after all the transform have taken effect. Using transform and direct transformation properties has very significant different reactions which could mess up the page. I would send you the code you so could test but how do i do that...?
can you make a video about how to apply animation like fading in for example for a div only when it appears on screen and for it to also fade out when scrolled past it? i been trying to find a way but so far it only works in one way and not the other thanks.
I used transform a few times before, but one thing I don't understand why does my code look different sometimes in Codepen and in regular browser window? Basically is the same code.
The scale property has 79.58% overall browser support. It's cleaner code, but not hardly makes a difference compared to just using transform instead that has 98.68% overall browser support.
The only thing is that it seems not to be supported by most web browsers just yet, so it wouldn't be possible to use it for involved projects. But once it comes into full effect it will be awesome
You are not going to want to use transform but you still have to because browser support. Chrome added these properties just this month. Not everyone updates their browsers. Please wait before jumping to this for your production code.
