translate3d()
The translate3d() CSS function repositions an element in 3D space. Its result is a <transform-function> data type.
This transformation is characterized by a three-dimensional vector. Its coordinates define how much the element moves in each direction.
Syntax
translate3d(tx, ty, tz) Values
tx Is a <length> or <percentage> representing the abscissa of the translating vector.
ty Is a <length> or <percentage> representing the ordinate of the translating vector.
tz Is a <length> representing the z component of the translating vector. It can't be a <percentage> value; in that case the property containing the transform is considered invalid.

| This transformation applies to the 3D space and can't be represented on the plane. | A translation is not a linear transformation in ℝ^3 and can't be represented using a Cartesian-coordinate matrix. | ( 1 0 0 tx 0 1 0 ty 0 0 1 tz 0 0 0 1 ) | |
Examples
Using a single axis translation
HTML<div>Static</div> <div class="moved">Moved</div> <div>Static</div> div { width: 60px; height: 60px; background-color: skyblue; } .moved { /* Equivalent to perspective(500px) translateX(10px) */ transform: perspective(500px) translate3d(10px, 0, 0px); background-color: pink; } Combining z-axis and x-axis translation
HTML<div>Static</div> <div class="moved">Moved</div> <div>Static</div> div { width: 60px; height: 60px; background-color: skyblue; } .moved { transform: perspective(500px) translate3d(10px, 0, 100px); background-color: pink; } Specifications
