3D Transforms
CSS3 allows you to format your elements using 3D transforms.
In this chapter you will learn about some of the 3D transform methods:
- rotateX()
- rotateY()
Click on the elements below, to see the difference between a 2D transform and a 3D transform:

Browser Support
| Property | Browser Support | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| transform | -webkit- | -webkit- | |||
Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Opera does not yet support the 3D transform methods.
Chrome and Safari requires the prefix -webkit-.
The rotateX() Method
With the rotateX() method, the element rotates around its X-axis at a given degree.

The rotateY() Method
With the rotateY() method, the element rotates around its Y-axis at a given degree.

Transform Properties
The following table lists all the transform properties:
| Property | Description | CSS |
|---|---|---|
| transform | Applies a 2D or 3D transformation to an element | 3 |
| transform-origin | Allows you to change the position on transformed elements | 3 |
| transform-style | Specifies how nested elements are rendered in 3D space | 3 |
| perspective | Specifies the perspective on how 3D elements are viewed | 3 |

| backface-visibility | Defines whether or not an element should be visible when not facing the screen | 3 |
3D Transform Methods
| Function | Description |
|---|---|
| matrix3d (n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n,n) | Defines a 3D transformation, using a 4x4 matrix of 16 values |
| translate3d(x,y,z) | Defines a 3D translation |
| translateX(x) | Defines a 3D translation, using only the value for the X-axis |
| translateY(y) | Defines a 3D translation, using only the value for the Y-axis |
| translateZ(z) | Defines a 3D translation, using only the value for the Z-axis |
| scale3d(x,y,z) | Defines a 3D scale transformation |
| scaleX(x) | Defines a 3D scale transformation by giving a value for the X-axis |
| scaleY(y) | Defines a 3D scale transformation by giving a value for the Y-axis |
| scaleZ(z) | Defines a 3D scale transformation by giving a value for the Z-axis |
| rotate3d(x,y,z,angle) | Defines a 3D rotation |
| rotateX(angle) | Defines a 3D rotation along the X-axis |
