I took this Pen: https://codepen.io/golle404/pen/BoqrEN and wanted to make it move every few seconds.
I tried this:
setTimeout(function() {
document.getElementById("move").style.transform = "rotateY(203deg)";
}, 2000);
but this moves the object once and I want to make the cube spin infinite with 3 stops.
So like the cube rotates to 203deg and should stay there for 2 seconds and move to 180deg for example - in a infinite loop.
Is there a way to do it ? Or is it not possible.
You can use a keyframe animation for this.
For example:
@keyframes rotation {
0%, 100% {
transform: rotateX(90deg) translateZ(-150px);
}
33.333% {
transform: translateZ(150px);
}
66.666% {
transform: rotateY(90deg) translateZ(150px);
}
}
And then you use it like this
.my-element {
animation: rotation 5s infinite;
}
Here it is in combination with your code from the codepen:
.container {
margin-top: 150px;
}
.news-grid {
width: 300px;
margin: auto;
}
.news-card {
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
perspective: 800px;
perspective-origin: 50% 50%;
outline: 1px solid blue;
}
.face>img {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
#experiment {
-webkit-perspective: 800px;
-webkit-perspective-origin: 50% 200px;
-moz-perspective: 800px;
-moz-perspective-origin: 50% 200px;
perspective: 800px;
perspective-origin: 50% 200px;
}
.cube {
position: relative;
margin: auto;
height: 300px;
width: 300px;
-webkit-transition: -webkit-transform 2s linear;
-webkit-transform-style: preserve-3d;
-moz-transition: -moz-transform 2s linear;
-moz-transform-style: preserve-3d;
transition: transform 2s linear;
transform-style: preserve-3d;
transform: rotateY(245deg);
animation: rotation 5s infinite;
}
.face {
position: absolute;
height: 260px;
width: 260px;
padding: 20px;
background-color: rgba(50, 50, 50, 0.7);
font-size: 27px;
line-height: 1em;
color: #fff;
border: 1px solid #555;
border-radius: 3px;
}
@keyframes rotation {
0%,
100% {
transform: rotateX(90deg) translateZ(-150px);
}
33.333% {
transform: translateZ(150px);
}
66.666% {
transform: rotateY(90deg) translateZ(150px);
}
