Template:Transform-rotate

[⧼Purge⧽ Template:Transform-rotate]

The {{transform-rotate}} cross-browser compatibility template gives the CSS code for rotating elements inside the style attribute. Use it inside the style="" attribute of HTML elements like other CSS properties.

Usage

<span style="{{transform-rotate|angle (in degrees)}}">element to rotate</span>

or

<span style="{{transform-rotate|angle (in degrees)|display = display}}">element to rotate</span>

with arguments

• angle (in degrees): first unnamed parameter {{{1|0}}} for rotation angle (in degree, default 0).

Positive values rotate clockwise, negative values rotate counterclockwise.

• display: the named parameter display allows you to change the CSS display property. It defaults to inline-block;.

When using this template to create the rotating effect, editors should consider carefully about the accessibility.

Note: This template is not supported by IE8 or older. IE8 requires cumbersome calculating of matrices.

Examples

The rotating happens at the center of the object's bounding box and it's effective dimensions will retain the original values of the object as if unrotated, so you may adjust the position and padding to avoid unwanted overlapping. Use the display parameter to further control positioning.

Syntax		Result
Some rotated characters:
<span style="{{transform-rotate|90}}">A</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|180}}">B</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|270}}">C</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|360}}">D</span>		A B C D
Some rotated special characters (useful when the font-family has no italic or oblique font):
<span style="font-size: 1.4em; {{transform-rotate|0}}">∫</span> <span style="font-size: 1.4em; {{transform-rotate|20}}">∫</span> <span style="font-size: 1.4em; {{transform-rotate|40}}">∫</span> <span style="font-size: 1.4em; {{transform-rotate|60}}">∫</span>		∫ ∫ ∫ ∫
Works with numbers, too:
<span style="{{transform-rotate|0}}">0</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|10}}">1</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|20}}">2</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|30}}">3</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|40}}">4</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|50}}">5</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|60}}">6</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|70}}">7</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|80}}">8</span> <span style="{{transform-rotate|90}}">9</span>		0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
Or with arbitrary text:
<span style="{{transform-rotate|-90}}">This upwards text{{nl}}is vertically{{nl}}aligned at bottom.</span>{{nl|3}}<span style="{{transform-rotate|-180}}">This text is upside down.</span>		This upwards text is vertically aligned at bottom. This text is upside down.
This is a placeholder image, It is rotated 90 degrees clockwise.
<div style="position: relative; top: 0px; left: 0px; {{transform-rotate|90}}">[[File:Clockface.png|200px]]</div>
This is rotated text at the angle of 30 degree anticlockwise.
<div style="border: 3px solid red; width: 150px; position: relative; left: 0px; top: 50px; opacity: 0.5; {{transform-rotate|-10|display = block}}">Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.</div>		Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
