CSS3 Rotate Animation

Question

<img class="image" src="" alt="" width="120" height="120">

Cannot get this animated image to work, it is supposed to do a 360 degrees rotation.

I guess something's wrong with the CSS below, as it just stays still.

.image {
    float: left;
    margin: 0 auto;
    position: absolute;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
    width: 120px;
    height: 120px;
    margin-top: -60px;
    margin-left: -60px;

    -webkit-animation-name: spin;
    -webkit-animation-duration: 4000ms;
    -webkit-animation-iteration-count: infinite;
    -webkit-animation-timing-function: linear;

    -moz-animation-name: spin;
    -moz-animation-duration: 4000ms;
    -moz-animation-iteration-count: infinite;
    -moz-animation-timing-function: linear;

    -ms-animation-name: spin;
    -ms-animation-duration: 4000ms;
    -ms-animation-iteration-count: infinite;
    -ms-animation-timing-function: linear;

    animation-name: spin;
    animation-duration: 4000ms;
    animation-iteration-count: infinite;
    animation-timing-function: linear;

    @-ms-keyframes spin { 
        from { 
            -ms-transform: rotate(0deg); 
        } to { 
            -ms-transform: rotate(360deg); 
        }
    }
    @-moz-keyframes spin { 
        from { 
            -moz-transform: rotate(0deg); 
        } to { 
            -moz-transform: rotate(360deg); 
        }
    }
    @-webkit-keyframes spin { 
        from { 
            -webkit-transform: rotate(0deg); 
        } to { 
            -webkit-transform: rotate(360deg); 
        }
    }
    @keyframes spin { 
        from { 
            transform: rotate(0deg); 
        } to { 
            transform: rotate(360deg); 
        }
    }
}

Answer 1

Here is a demo. The correct animation CSS:

.image {
    position: absolute;
    top: 50%;
    left: 50%;
    width: 120px;
    height: 120px;
    margin:-60px 0 0 -60px;
    -webkit-animation:spin 4s linear infinite;
    -moz-animation:spin 4s linear infinite;
    animation:spin 4s linear infinite;
}
@-moz-keyframes spin { 100% { -moz-transform: rotate(360deg); } }
@-webkit-keyframes spin { 100% { -webkit-transform: rotate(360deg); } }
@keyframes spin { 100% { -webkit-transform: rotate(360deg); transform:rotate(360deg); } }

<img class="image" src="http://i.stack.imgur.com/pC1Tv.jpg" alt="" width="120" height="120">

Some notes on your code:

1. You've nested the keyframes inside the .image rule, and that's incorrect
2. float:left won't work on absolutely positioned elements
3. Have a look at caniuse: IE10 doesn't need the -ms- prefix

Answer 2

To achieve the 360 degree rotation, here is the Working Solution.

The HTML:

<img class="image" src="your-image.png">

The CSS:

.image {
    overflow: hidden;
    transition-duration: 0.8s;
    transition-property: transform;
}
.image:hover {
    transform: rotate(360deg);
    -webkit-transform: rotate(360deg);
}

You have to hover on the image and you will get the 360 degree rotation effect.

PS: Add a -webkit- extension for it to work on chrome and other webkit browers. You can check the updated fiddle for webkit HERE

Answer 3

I have a rotating image using the same thing as you:

.knoop1 img{
    position:absolute;
    width:114px;
    height:114px;
    top:400px;
    margin:0 auto;
    margin-left:-195px;
    z-index:0;

    -webkit-transition-duration: 0.8s;
    -moz-transition-duration: 0.8s;
    -o-transition-duration: 0.8s;
    transition-duration: 0.8s;

    -webkit-transition-property: -webkit-transform;
    -moz-transition-property: -moz-transform;
    -o-transition-property: -o-transform;
     transition-property: transform;

     overflow:hidden;
}

.knoop1:hover img{
    -webkit-transform:rotate(360deg);
    -moz-transform:rotate(360deg); 
    -o-transform:rotate(360deg);
}

Answer 4

if you want to flip image you can use it.

.image{
    width: 100%;
    -webkit-animation:spin 3s linear infinite;
    -moz-animation:spin 3s linear infinite;
    animation:spin 3s linear infinite;
}
@-moz-keyframes spin { 50% { -moz-transform: rotateY(90deg); } }
@-webkit-keyframes spin { 50% { -webkit-transform: rotateY(90deg); } }
@keyframes spin { 50% { -webkit-transform: rotateY(90deg); transform:rotateY(90deg); } }

Answer 5

try this easy

 
 .btn-circle span {
     top: 0;
   
      position: absolute;
     font-size: 18px;
       text-align: center;
    text-decoration: none;
      -webkit-animation:spin 4s linear infinite;
    -moz-animation:spin 4s linear infinite;
    animation:spin 4s linear infinite;
}

.btn-circle span :hover {
 color :silver;
}


/* rotate 360 key for refresh btn */
@-moz-keyframes spin { 100% { -moz-transform: rotate(360deg); } }
@-webkit-keyframes spin { 100% { -webkit-transform: rotate(360deg); } }
@keyframes spin { 100% { -webkit-transform: rotate(360deg); transform:rotate(360deg); } } 

 <button type="button" class="btn btn-success btn-circle" ><span class="glyphicon">&#x21bb;</span></button>

The another method to rotate an object in the background using css3, check out the below css3 code here: object animation Demo Here

.floating-ball-model-3 > span {
    animation-name: floating-ball-model-3;
    animation-duration: 7s;
    animation-iteration-count: infinite;
    animation-timing-function: linear;
    -webkit-animation-name: floating-ball-model-3;
    -webkit-animation-duration: 7s;
    -webkit-animation-iteration-count: infinite;
    -webkit-animation-timing-function: linear;
    -moz-animation-name: floating-ball-model-3;
    -moz-animation-duration: 7s;
    -moz-animation-iteration-count: infinite;
    -moz-animation-timing-function: linear;
    -ms-animation-name: floating-ball-model-3;
    -ms-animation-duration: 7s;
    -ms-animation-iteration-count: infinite;
    -ms-animation-timing-function: linear;
    -o-animation-name: floating-ball-model-3;
    -o-animation-duration: 7s;
    -o-animation-iteration-count: infinite;
    -o-animation-timing-function: linear;
}


@keyframes floating-ball-model-3 {
    from {
        transform: rotate(0deg);
    }
    to { 
        transform: rotate(360deg);
    }
}

Here this should help you

The below jsfiddle link will help you understand how to rotate a image.I used the same one to rotate the dial of a clock.

http://jsfiddle.net/xw89p/

var rotation = function (){
   $("#image").rotate({
      angle:0, 
      animateTo:360, 
      callback: rotation,
      easing: function (x,t,b,c,d){       
          return c*(t/d)+b;
      }
   });
}
rotation();

Where: • t: current time,

• b: begInnIng value,

• c: change In value,

• d: duration,

• x: unused

No easing (linear easing): function(x, t, b, c, d) { return b+(t/d)*c ; }
