Animation properties in CSS3

How to use animation properties in CSS3


Animation

An animation lets an element gradually change from one style to another, to create animation using css we need to use keyframes for the animation 

There are different types of animations used in animation, they are 

  • Animation delay
  • Animation direction
  • Animation duration
  • Animation fill mode
  • Animation iteration count
  • Animation name
  • Animation play state
  • Animation timing function 

Animation-delay

Animation delay is used to delay the animation for given value 

 <style>
        div {
            width: 100px;
            height: 100px;
            background-color: red;
            position: relative;

          /* for chrome, safari */
            -webkit-animation-name: example;
            -webkit-animation-duration: 4s;
            -webkit-animation-delay: 2s;

            /* for firefox and safari*/
            -moz-animation-name: example;
            -moz-animation-duration: 4s;
            -moz-animation-delay: 2s;

            /* Standard syntax*/
             animation-name: example;
             animation-duration: 4s;
             animation-delay: 2s;

             /* for opera */
            -o-animation-name: example;
            -o-animation-duration: 4s;
            -o-animation-delay: 2s;
        }

        @-webkit-keyframes example {
            0% {
                background-color: red;
                left: 0px;
                top: 0px;
            }

            50% {
                background-color: blue;
                left: 200px;
                top: 200px;
            }

            100% {
                background-color: red;
                left: 0px;
                top: 0px;
            }
        }

        @-moz-keyframes example {
            0% {
                background-color: red;
                left: 0px;
                top: 0px;
            }

            50% {
                background-color: blue;
                left: 200px;
                top: 200px;
            }

            100% {
                background-color: red;
                left: 0px;
                top: 0px;
            }
        }
         @-o-keyframes example {
            0% {
                background-color: red;
                left: 0px;
                top: 0px;
            }

            50% {
                background-color: blue;
                left: 200px;
                top: 200px;
            }

            100% {
                background-color: red;
                left: 0px;
                top: 0px;
            }
        }
          @keyframes example {
            0% {

            }
        }
    </style>

<body>
    <h2>Animation delay for 2s </h2>
    <div></div>
</body>
In the above code snippet we have defined the animation delay which is used to delay the animation for 2s, it starts animating after 2 seconds at 0% it is in the color as red, at 50% it has blue color which moves to left 200 px and top 200px and at 100% it has color red  

output

Animation direction

It is used to animate in the given direction

 <style>
        div {
            width: 100px;
            height: 100px;

            /* Standard syntax  */
            animation: animate 2s infinite;
            animation-direction: alternate-reverse;
        }

        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <h2>Animation direction</h2>
    <div></div>
</body>

Animation direction

In the above code snippet we have defined the animation direction, w have given the animation direction as alternate-reverse at 0% it has the color green, at 50% it has the color pink with values left and top as 200 px and at the 100% it has blue color with values left and top as 0 px

output

Animation duration

It animates in given duration of time

 <style>
        div {
            width: 100px;
            height: 100px;

Animation duration 

In the above code snippet we have animation duration property which is used to animate the function in one second

output

Animation fill mode

The animation fill mode property specifies how a CSS animation should apply styles to its target before and after it is executing.

It contains different styles they are

Animation-fill-mode:none, farward, backward, initial, inherit

 <style>
        div {

Animation fill mode

In the above code snippet we have defied the animation fill mode property, it uses animation iteration count for defining animation fill mode property, animation farwards defines the animation will apply the property values for the time the animation ended, we have given iteration count as 5 which displays output five times from top 0px to 200px in red color

output

Animation iteration count

It defines the number of times to display the output

<style>
        div {
            width: 100px;

Animation iteration count

In the above code snippet we have defined the animation iteration count which is used to define the count of animations , it is usd to animate the given number of times in the output

output

Animation Timing function

It Plays an animation with the same speed from beginning to end

 <style>
        div {
            width: 100px;
            height: 100px;
