Using CSS to make button animate - html

I am trying to make two buttons animate from small to large on hover using CSS. I have the following which does make the button change but without no animation. (button.png and buttonHover.png are the same pixel width and height - but the images are of a small button with a transparent surround and a large button).
It may well be that this is the wrong way to do it - this is the first time I have trued this.
a.button {
background: url(button.png) no-repeat 0 0;
width: 150px;
height: 62px;
display: block;
line-height: 62px;
text-align: center;
font-size:9px;
color: white;
}
a.button:hover{
background: url(buttonPressed.png) no-repeat 0 0;
font-size:14px;
-webkit-animation: myButton 1s; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
animation: myButton 1s;
}
/* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
#-webkit-keyframes myButton {
background: url(buttonHover.png) no-repeat 0 0;
font-size:14px;
}
/* Standard syntax */
#keyframes myButton {
background: url(buttonPressed.png) no-repeat 0 0;
font-size:14px;
}

No need for keyframes; use transition.
As Zach mentioned in the comments, background images can't be animated between. You should recreate the backgrounds in CSS.
From the MDN:
The CSS transition property is a shorthand property for transition-property, transition-duration, transition-timing-function, and transition-delay. It allows to define the transition between two states of an element. Different states may be defined using pseudo-classes like :hover or :active or dynamically set using JavaScript.
Example
In this example, the "all" indicates that every difference between the normal state and :hover that can be animated should transition over 0.5 seconds. Here is a complete list of animated properties.
Use the appropriate browser prefixes before the non-prefixed transition as needed. Depending on your needs, browser prefixes could be unnecessary. Have a look over here on caniuse.com for an overview of browser support.
a.button {
background: #000;
width: 150px;
height: 62px;
display: block;
line-height: 62px;
text-align: center;
font-size: 9px;
color: #FFF;
transition: all 0.5s;
}
a.button:hover {
background: #F00;
font-size: 14px;
}
<a class="button">Button</a>

Im leaving you a working example on how to implement it. Hope it helps.
button {
width : 100px;
height: 20px;
-webkit-transition: 1s ease-in-out;
-moz-transition: 1s ease-in-out;
-o-transition: 1s ease-in-out;
transition: 1s ease-in-out;
}
button:hover {
width : 150px;
height: 30px;
}
<button>

How tu have a ease in and out transition on this button [duplicate]

Is there any way to do the opposite of :hover using only CSS? As in: if :hover is on Mouse Enter, is there a CSS equivalent to on Mouse Leave?
Example:
I have a HTML menu using list items. When I hover one of the items, there is a CSS color animation from #999 to black. How can I create the opposite effect when the mouse leaves the item area, with an animation from black to #999?
jsFiddle
(Have in mind that I do not wish to answer only this example, but the entire "opposite of :hover" issue.)
If I understand correctly you could do the same thing by moving your transitions to the link rather than the hover state:
ul li a {
color:#999;
transition: color 0.5s linear; /* vendorless fallback */
-o-transition: color 0.5s linear; /* opera */
-ms-transition: color 0.5s linear; /* IE 10 */
-moz-transition: color 0.5s linear; /* Firefox */
-webkit-transition: color 0.5s linear; /*safari and chrome */
}
ul li a:hover {
color:black;
cursor: pointer;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/spacebeers/sELKu/3/
The definition of hover is:
The :hover selector is used to select elements when you mouse over
them.
By that definition the opposite of hover is any point at which the mouse is not over it. Someone far smarter than me has done this article, setting different transitions on both states - http://css-tricks.com/different-transitions-for-hover-on-hover-off/
#thing {
padding: 10px;
border-radius: 5px;
/* HOVER OFF */
-webkit-transition: padding 2s;
}
#thing:hover {
padding: 20px;
border-radius: 15px;
/* HOVER ON */
-webkit-transition: border-radius 2s;
}
The opposite is using :not
e.g.
selection:not(:hover) { rules }
Just use CSS transitions instead of animations.
A {
color: #999;
transition: color 1s ease-in-out;
}
A:hover {
color: #000;
}
Live demo
Put your duration time in the non-hover selection:
li a {
background-color: #111;
transition:1s;
}
li a:hover {
padding:19px;
}
Just add a transition to the element you are messing with. Be aware that there could be some effects when the page loads. Like if you made a border radius change, you will see it when the dom loads.
.element {
width: 100px;
transition: all ease-in-out 0.5s;
}
.element:hover {
width: 200px;
transition: all ease-in-out 0.5s;
}
No there is no explicit property for mouse leave in CSS.
You could use :hover on all the other elements except the item in question to achieve this effect. But Im not sure how practical that would be.
I think you have to look at a JS / jQuery solution.
Another way of using transition is just specifying the milliseconds like so: transition: 500ms;
Try the following snippet
div{
background: DeepSkyBlue;
width:150px;
height:100px;
transition: 500ms;
}
div:hover{
opacity: 0.5;
cursor:pointer;
}
<div>HOVER ME</div>
You can use CSS3 transition
Some good links:
http://css-tricks.com/different-transitions-for-hover-on-hover-off/
http://www.alistapart.com/articles/understanding-css3-transitions/
Just add a transition and the name of the animation on the class inicial, in your case, ul li a, just add a "transition" property and that is all you need
ul li {
display: inline;
margin-left: 20px;
}
ul li a {
color: #999;
transition: 1s;
-webkit-animation: item-hover-off 1s;
-moz-animation: item-hover-off 1s;
animation: item-hover-off 1s;
}
ul li a:hover {
color: black;
cursor: pointer;
-webkit-animation: item-hover 1s;
-moz-animation: item-hover 1s;
animation: item-hover 1s;
}
#keyframes item-hover {
from {
color: #999;
}
to {
color: black;
}
}
#-moz-keyframes item-hover {
from {
color: #999;
}
to {
color: black;
}
}
#-webkit-keyframes item-hover {
from {
color: #999;
}
to {
color: black;
}
}
#keyframes item-hover-off {
from {
color: black;
}
to {
color: #999;
}
}
#-moz-keyframes item-hover-off {
from {
color: black;
}
to {
color: #999;
}
}
#-webkit-keyframes item-hover-off {
from {
color: black;
}
to {
color: #999;
}
}
<ul>
<li><a>Home</a></li>
<li><a>About</a></li>
<li><a>Contacts</a></li>
</ul>
Although answers here are sufficient, I really think W3Schools example on this issue is very straightforward (it cleared up the confusion (for me) right away).
Use the :hover selector to change the style of a button when you move
the mouse over it.
Tip: Use the transition-duration property to determine the speed of
the "hover" effect:
Example
.button {
-webkit-transition-duration: 0.4s; /* Safari & Chrome */
transition-duration: 0.4s;
}
.button:hover {
background-color: #4CAF50; /* Green */
color: white;
}
In summary, for transitions where you want the "enter" and "exit" animations to be the same, you need to employ transitions on the main selector .button rather than the hover selector .button:hover. For transitions where you want the "enter" and "exit" animations to be different, you will need specify different main selector and hover selector transitions.
You have misunderstood :hover; it says the mouse is over an item, rather than the mouse has just entered the item.
You could add animation to the selector without :hover to achieve the effect you want.
Transitions is a better option: http://jsfiddle.net/Cvx96/
The opposite of :hover appears to be :link.
(edit: not technically an opposite because there are 4 selectors :link, :visited, :hover and :active. Five if you include :focus.)
For example when defining a rule .button:hover{ text-decoration:none } to remove the underline on a button, the underline shows up when you roll off the button in some browsers. I've fixed this with .button:hover, .button:link{ text-decoration:none }
This of course only works for elements that are actually links (have href attribute)
This will add background color to the .icon when hovered and background fades when mouse pointer left the element..
.icon {
transition: background-color 0.5s ease-in-out; /* this is important */
}
.icon:hover {
background-color: rgba(169, 169, 169, 0.9);
}

How do I smoothly and simultaneously expand/compress a parent div and reveal an inner child on hover with CSS only?

CODE SAMPLE HERE: http://codepen.io/colbisaurusrex/pen/YZdKyO?editors=1100
First problem:
I am trying to smoothly expand and compress a div (class: event) on hover. It expands smoothly, but it snaps back quickly when user is no longer hovering on div. I'd like to transition back at the same ease as it expands
Second problem:
Simultaneously, I'd like to reveal an inner, hidden child(class: hidden) when I hover over its parent(class: event). Ideally, I'd like to reveal it when the parent is fully expanded. And ease it back to hidden as the parent compresses. Right now, it is revealed immediately, before the parent div is fully expanded. I have tried to add a delay.
Basically, there is a beginning and ending transition that exact mirrors of each other. I'd like to do this with no Javascript
Bonus Question: If the entire transition was set off by a button click(say the Show Details button), do I have to use JS? Is there a way to do this with CSS only?
/* This is the CSS I am working with */
.event {
margin-top: 2%;
width: 960px;
border-color:#496DD9;
border-style: dotted;
font-size: 0.5em;
height: 250px;
transform: height 300ms ease-out;
}
.event:hover {
height: 300px;
transition: height 500ms ease-in;
}
.event:hover .hidden {
display: block;
transition: display 300ms ease-in 1s;
}
.hidden {
font-size: 30px;
display: none;
}
/* End of css */
problem 1: transform should be transition
.event {
margin-top: 2%;
width: 960px;
border-color:#496DD9;
border-style: dotted;
font-size: 0.5em;
height: 250px;
transform: height 300ms ease-out; // change this to transition
}
Problem 2: try using opacity instead of display:
.event:hover .hidden {
/* display: block; */
/* transition: display 500ms ease-in 1s; */
-webkit-transition: opacity 2s ease-in-out;
opacity: 1;
}
.hidden {
font-size: 30px;
/* display: none; */
opacity: 0;
}

Hiding an element after transition using CSS only

I have been trying to design a login form and the button requires a little transition effect. There is one complexity though.
Background: I originally copied this idea from here: original form.
Notice how there is no padding (left and right) on the main container, now in my demo it was critical to have padding left and this creates a problem (will explain further).
Now here's my demo:
My version of login form (don't be scared of the 108 lines of CSS code; I'll paste the code that pertains to my problem below).
So the code that's relevant to this problem is as follows.
The HTML code:
<button class="login-button"><span>SEND</span></button>
The CSS code:
.login-button{
width: 100%;
outline: none;
border:none;
cursor: pointer;
padding: 0;
margin:0;
transition:.3s;
}
.login-input , .login-button{
height: 50px;
line-height: 40px;
transition:.3s;
}
.login-button span{
display: block;
background:red;
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
left: 0;
transition:.3s;
position: relative;
}
.login-button span:before{
content: 'ok';
position: absolute;
left: 100%;
display: block;
}
.login-button:hover span:before{
content: 'OK To go now';
position: absolute;
/*left: 0%;*/
text-align: center;
display: block;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
Now if I go to the CSS styling for the main container:
I.E.
.main-login{
min-width: 200px;
max-width: 400px;
background: #533e69;
margin: 100px auto;
text-align: center;
overflow: hidden;
box-shadow: 1px 1px 10px rgba(0,0,0,.2);
padding: 0 20px;
}
and take off the padding, then the problem is solved and the transition looks perfect.
The problem
My requirements are such that I need that padding, so now what happens is when you hover over the button and the span element moves left:-100%, it's still visible in the main container.
Proposed solution
I would like it if this problem can be solved in CSS only as I don't really like cluttering my doc's with JS. So how about this.
I am new to CSS, so my solution may be less elegant:
When hovered over the button, the span overs left:-100% and than if the span can be set to display:none. Sounds simple, but my limited knowledge of CSS has got me stuck here.
You need to set the background to be transparent. It's not possible for a transition to animate the display property.
Add this css code, and it should work:
.login-button:hover span{
-webkit-transition-delay: 1s; /* Safari */
transition-delay: 1s;
transition: 2s;
background: rgba(1,1,1,0);
}
See your updated fiddle here.
Edit: I cleaned up the css a bit:
.login-button:hover span{
transition: 0.3s;
background: transparent;
}
Fiddle is here.
Transition properties are comma delimited in all browsers that support transitions:
.nav a {
-webkit-transition: color .2s, text-shadow .2s;
/* And so on... */
}
Ease is the default, so you don't have to specify it. If you really want linear, you will need to specify it, i.e. -webkit-transition: color .2s linear, text-shadow .2s linear;
Or try this
transition-property: width;
transition-duration: 1s;
transition-timing-function: linear;
transition-delay: 2s;

Different appearance on each major browser

Update I implemented the CSS Reset and to no avail. The answer by Kejko also did not help and instead made it worse. (Chrome now displays it incorrect with the change in styles)
This may be the problem since I know actual tables can not be positioned relative?
.chatIcons {
display: table;
}
End Update
I was about to have my site go live after I tested how each page looked on the major browsers and ran into a problem. The problem seems to be involved with the hover effect of the icons.
In chrome the icon section appears exactly how I want it to.
In FireFox it appears the same but once one it is hovered it only effects the third icon and the .iconInfo's overlay from staying relative to the parent, instead it is doing 100% width and height of the main parent container.
In IE 10-11 it keeps everything correct but once it is hovered the "overlay" is not 100% height anymore and the height actually varies.
Here is the css pertaining to the hover:
.iconInfo {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
text-align: center;
opacity: 0;
transition: opacity 0.6s ease;
-webkit-transition: opacity 0.6s ease;
-moz-transition: opacity 0.6s ease;
}
.icon:hover .iconInfo {
opacity: 1;
}
I have included a fiddle to help, Demo
Try this:
.icon {
border-radius: 5px;
display: inline-block;
padding: 15px 0;
position: relative;
vertical-align: middle;
width: 32.99%;
}
That should fix your problem.

Is it possible to scale a SVG image using CSS transforms and transitions?

I am currently working on my portfolio site. I am using a Javascript to animate the header when scrolling (this is the tutorial I have followed).
It basically displays a larger header and logo when you scroll all the way to the top of the page. When you scroll down below 300 pixels it will reduce the height of the header in a graceful manner using CSS transitions. The larger logo will be swapped with a smaller version of the logo (as seen below). The tutorial was not intended for images but I made some small alterations to make it work.
.logo {
display: block;
float: left;
width: 180px; height: 60px;
margin-top: 29px;
background: url(../images/logo-large.svg); background-repeat: no-repeat;
font: 0/0 a; text-shadow: none; color: transparent;
}
.logo-shrink {
display: block;
float: left;
width: 90px; height: 30px;
margin-top: 14px;
background: url(../images/logo-small.svg); background-repeat: no-repeat;
font: 0/0 a; text-shadow: none; color: transparent;
}
I am wondering if there is any way that I can apply CSS transforms and transitions to make the swap less jarring? Would it be possible to maybe use a single image and scale it up or down? I apologise if this is a silly question, I am quite new to this :) Please let me know if you need me to provide more details.
Any help would be greatly appreciated :)
Instead of swapping the class, just add and remove class .logo-shrink. Add CSS transitions in class .logo...
.logo {
display: block;
float: left;
width: 180px; height: 60px;
margin-top: 29px;
background: url(../images/logo-large.svg); background-repeat: no-repeat;
font: 0/0 a; text-shadow: none; color: transparent;
-webkit-transition: all 300ms ease;
-moz-transition: all 300ms ease;
-o-transition: all 300ms ease;
transition: all 300ms ease;
}
.logo-shrink {
width: 90px; height: 30px;
margin-top: 14px;
}
If the animation feels jerky then you can transform and transition on a parent div, as SVG 1.1 does not allow this style to be applied on the SVG tag (though I think it works in Webkit anyways).
The easiest way is using CSS3 transforms:
e.g.
<svg style="-webkit-transform: rotateZ(30deg); transform: rotateZ(30deg); -moz-transform: rotateZ(30deg);" width="400" height="180">
<rect x="50" y="20" width="150" height="150" style="fill:blue;stroke:pink;stroke-width:5;fill-opacity:0.1;stroke-opacity:0.9">
</svg>
Obviously, you can apply the styling using classes or whatever.
