Syntax

Values

none

Does not apply any additional image rotation; the image is oriented as encoded or as other CSS property values dictate.

from-image

Default initial value. The EXIF information contained in the image is used to rotate the image appropriately.

Description

This property is intended only to be used for the purpose of correcting the orientation of images which were shot with the camera rotated. It should not be used for arbitrary rotations. For any purpose other than correcting an image's orientation due to how it was shot or scanned, use a transform property with the rotate keyword to specify rotation. This includes any user-directed changes to the orientation of the image, or changes required for printing in portrait versus landscape orientation.

If used in conjunction with other CSS properties, such as a <transform-function>, any image-orientation rotation is applied before any other transformations.
