CSS Animation with an infinitely rotating cube - css

I am trying to make an animation of a rotating cube in 3D but the problem is i want the animation to not have any delay between rotations and i just cant get it to work, right now the cube rotates but it stops for a second before it starts the next rotating animation.
(apparently i need more explanation to post this so ignore the following part)

Rotation stops because of the default animation-timing-function which by default is ease.
So it starts and ends very slowly.
Try to use another value linear.
As the word suggests Linear starts and ends linearly.

Tranform rotate with degrees in the same rotation

I am trying to rotate a cube with keyframes so it keeps rotating in the same direction with no rotation backwards and keeps rotating horizontally in one direction without reverse on infinite.
<div class="cube">
<div class="cube-face front"></div>
<div class="cube-face back"></div>
<div class="cube-face right"></div>
<div class="cube-face left"></div>
<div class="cube-face top"></div>
<div class="cube-face bottom"></div>
</div>
CSS degrees run over 360 and don't seem to stop... As you can see with the current keyframes the cube will rotate backwards, is there a solution to keep it going with CSS?
.cube {
width: 250px;
height: 250px;
position: relative;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
transform: rotateX(315deg) rotateY(-45deg);
animation: rotate-cube 5s infinite;
margin-bottom: 50px;
cursor: pointer;
}
.cube-face {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
position: absolute;
width: 250px;
height: 250px;
border: 2px solid black;
font-size: 90px !important;
font-weight: bold;
color: #000;
}
.cube .front {
background: #f15d2a;
transform: rotateY(0deg) translateZ(125px);
}
.cube .right {
background: #0063a6;
transform: rotateY(90deg) translateZ(125px);
}
.cube .back {
background: #ed1652;
transform: rotate(0deg) rotateY(180deg) translateZ(125px);
}
.cube .left {
background: #12b259;
transform: rotateX(0) rotateY(-90deg) translateZ(125px);
}
.cube .top {
background: #fff;
transform: rotateY(0deg) rotateX(90deg) translateZ(125px);
}
.cube .bottom {
background: #ffd54c;
transform: rotatey(90deg) rotateX(-90deg) translateZ(125px);
}
#keyframes rotate-cube {
0% {
transform: rotateX(315deg) rotateY(-45deg);
}
33.33% {
transform: rotateX(315deg) rotateY(-135deg);
}
66.66% {
transform: rotateX(315deg) rotateY(-225deg);
}
100% {
transform: rotateX(315deg) rotateY(-45deg);
}
}
See example on codepen
Assuming you want the end and start to have the same rotation, you can set the final rotation to -405deg (360 + 45).
This should make sure the animation continues in the correct direction.
0% {
transform: rotateX(315deg) rotateY(-45deg);
}
33.33% {
transform: rotateX(315deg) rotateY(-135deg);
}
66.66% {
transform: rotateX(315deg) rotateY(-225deg);
}
100% {
transform: rotateX(315deg) rotateY(-405deg);
}

transform-origin:100% not working for transform rotate

I wanna create brochure which open to the left and the right when someone hover over it.
I use transform-origin: 0% and transform: rotateY(-180deg) for the left site of the brochure to open to the left site (Card red and blue). For the right side I use of course transform-origin: 100% and transform: rotateY(180deg) to open to the right site (Card green).
But the actual behavior of the right side is, that it applies transform-origin: 0% and rotates behind the left site of the brochure (Thats why you can't see it, but its there).
I can't understand why transform-origin: 100% don't take affect.
here is the code: https://jsfiddle.net/eL6q3hp4/2/
.book-container {
height: 350px;
width: 250px;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
-webkit-perspective: 1000px;
-moz-perspective: 1000px;
perspective: 1000px;
}
.book-part {
height: auto;
width: auto;
position: absolute;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
top: 0;
left: 0;
}
.book-part > .card {
height: 350px;
width: 250px;
position: absolute;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
backface-visibility: hidden;
}
/* RIGHT SITE */
.right-part {
transform-origin: 0%;
}
.right-card {
transform: rotateY(-180deg);
}
.book-container:hover .right-part {
transform: rotateY(180deg);
transition: 0.7s;
transition-delay: 0.3s;
}
/* LEFT SITE */
.left-part {
transform-origin: 100%;
}
.left-card {
transform: rotateY(180deg);
}
.book-container:hover .left-part {
transform: rotateY(-180deg);
transition: 0.7s;
}
.middle-card {
background-color: blue;
}
.right-card {
background-color: green;
}
.left-card {
background-color: red;
}
.front-card {
background-color: yellow;
}
<div class="book-container">
<div class="book-part middle-part">
<div class="card middle-card"></div>
</div>
<div class="book-part right-part">
<div class="card right-card"></div>
</div>
<div class="book-part left-part">
<div class="card left-card"></div>
<div class="card front-card"></div>
</div>
</div>
Remove absolute position from .book-part and invert the rotation values. You can also add a front card to the right block
I also added transition to the closing effect:
.book-container {
height: 350px;
width: 250px;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
perspective: 1000px;
}
.book-part {
transform-style: preserve-3d;
}
.book-part>.card {
height: 350px;
width: 250px;
position: absolute;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
backface-visibility: hidden;
}
/* RIGHT SITE */
.right-part {
transform-origin: 0%;
transition: 0.7s;
}
.right-card {
transform: rotateY(180deg);
}
.book-container:hover .right-part {
transform: rotateY(-180deg);
transition-delay: 0.3s;
}
/* LEFT SITE */
.left-part {
transform-origin: 100%;
transition: 0.7s;
transition-delay: 0.3s;
}
.left-card {
transform: rotateY(-180deg);
}
.book-container:hover .left-part {
transform: rotateY(180deg);
transition-delay: 0s;
}
<div class="book-container">
<div class="book-part middle-part">
<div class="card middle-card" style="background:blue"></div>
</div>
<div class="book-part right-part">
<img class="card right-card" style="background:green">
<img class="card front-card" style="background:pink;">
</div>
<div class="book-part left-part">
<img class="card left-card" style="background:red">
<img class="card front-card" style="background:yellow">
</div>
</div>
You can also simplify your code like below:
.book-container {
height: 350px;
width: 250px;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
perspective: 1000px;
background:blue;
}
.book-container > div{
transform-style: preserve-3d;
}
.book-container > div:before,
.book-container > div:after{
content:"";
height: 350px;
width:100%;
position: absolute;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
backface-visibility: hidden;
background:yellow;
}
/* RIGHT SITE */
.right-part {
transform-origin: 0%;
transition: 0.7s;
}
.book-container .right-part:before {
transform: rotateY(180deg);
background:green;
}
.book-container:hover .right-part {
transform: rotateY(-180deg);
transition-delay: 0.3s;
}
/* LEFT SITE */
.left-part {
transform-origin: 100%;
transition: 0.7s;
transition-delay: 0.3s;
}
.book-container .left-part:before {
transform: rotateY(180deg);
background:red;
}
.book-container:hover .left-part {
transform: rotateY(180deg);
transition-delay: 0s;
}
<div class="book-container">
<div class="right-part">
</div>
<div class="left-part">
</div>
</div>
I don't know if in the original situation you work with dynamic sizes (in which case this solution would not apply), but you can use a pixel value for transform-origin to make it work:
.book-container {
height: 350px;
width: 250px;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
-webkit-perspective: 1000px;
-moz-perspective: 1000px;
perspective: 1000px;
}
.book-part {
height: auto;
width: auto;
position: absolute;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
top: 0;
left: 0;
}
.book-part > .card {
height: 350px;
width: 250px;
position: absolute;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
backface-visibility: hidden;
}
/* RIGHT SITE */
.right-part {
transform-origin: 250px;
}
.right-card {
transform: rotateY(180deg);
}
.book-container:hover .right-part {
transform: rotateY(180deg);
transition: 0.7s;
transition-delay: 0.3s;
}
/* LEFT SITE */
.left-part {
transform-origin: 0%;
}
.left-card {
transform: rotateY(-180deg);
}
.book-container:hover .left-part {
transform: rotateY(-180deg);
transition: 0.7s;
}
.middle-card {
background-color: blue;
}
.right-card {
background-color: green;
}
.left-card {
background-color: red;
}
.front-card {
background-color: yellow;
}
<div class="book-container">
<div class="book-part middle-part">
<div class="card middle-card"></div>

-webkit-transform: rotateY fails on Mac OS

The cards are supposed to flip to reveal text on the back side. This works perfectly fine on my windows laptop and also on phones but seems to not work on Mac. Why is that?
I found a similar question asked on 2013 -webkit-transform: rotateY fails on Mac OS (in Chrome)
I hope it's either been fixed or there's a workaround for this by now.

what does scale3d() function really do?

scale3d(sx, sy, sz)
I can't understand what scale3d() really do when I change (sz) Value
In this below code you can see the value of (sz) is = 1
body{perspective:600px}
div{
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
background-color: burlywood;
margin: auto;
border-radius:40px;
transition: all 5s ease-in-out;
transform: scale3d(1,1,1)
}
<div></div>
In this below code you can see the value of (sz) is = 0.5
but nothing changed the same result
body{perspective:600px}
div{
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
background-color: burlywood;
margin: auto;
border-radius:40px;
transition: all 5s ease-in-out;
transform: scale3d(1,1,0.5)
}
<div></div>
Note : I tried all solutions & values but nothing happened
The third number in scale3d is for the z-axis, which is only applicable to three-dimensional shapes.
Your examples have perspective, but they're still just use two-dimensional shapes, so nothing happens.
You can see the effect with a true cube:
scale3d(1,1,1)
#wrapper {
perspective: 1200px;
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
margin: 80px auto;
}
#cube {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
transform: rotateX(45deg) rotateY(0deg) rotateZ(45deg) scale3d(1, 1,1);
transition: transform 1s;
}

What is Scale3d?
(Sample at end, see link)
Your 1st code:
transform: scale3d(1,1,1)
Your 2nd code:
transform: scale3d(1,1,0.5)
This is:
scale3d ( <scaling-value-x> , <scaling-value-y> , <scaling-value-z> )
Your example is a 2d shape with no effect thats why. Z pane is used to make 3d objects.
Try Here and see how it works.
