What is Word Ace?

Why is CSS3 a Secret? App coders don’t use CSS Web programmers use lowest-common-denominator CSS.

Holdovers from CSS2 Opacity display: inline-block;

-webkit-border-image <div class="border-image-demo1"><span>10</span></div> -webkit-border-image: url(../ images/menus/dashboard-newitem- badge.png) 0 12 0 12 repeat 12px 12px stretch; border-width: 0px 12px 0px 12px; 1px

color: #fff; position: absolute; top: 50px min-width: 24px; height: 28px; -webkit-border-image: url(images/menus/dashboard- newitem-badge.png) 0 12 0 12 repeat stretch; text-align: center; line-height: 30px; border-width: 0px 12px 0px 12px; /* All the above, plus: */ #border-image-demo2 span { position:relative; margin: 0 -6px; font-size: 16px; }

Working version #border-image-demo3 { color: #fff; min-width: 24px; height: 28px; position: absolute; top: 100px; text-align: center; line-height: 30px; -webkit-border-image: url(images/menus/dashboard- newitem-badge.png) 0 12 0 12 repeat stretch; -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; /* !!! */ border-width: 0px 12px 0px 12px; } #border-image-demo3 span { position:relative; margin: 0 -6px; font-size: 16px; }

-webkit-transform It’s like CSS within CSS! Whooooooooa. Cosmic.

-webkit-transform: translate(20px, 20px); -webkit-transform: scale(.5, 1); (also: skew! and combos!) -webkit-transform: rotate(60deg);

-webkit-transition Automatically animate an element when its properties change. Specify which properties to animate, their duration, and the curve.

Example 1: Sliding in. #loading-screen { width: 320px; height: 480px; position: absolute; top: 0px; right: -320px; -webkit-transition-property: right; -webkit-transition-duration: 1s; -webkit-transtion-curve: ease-in; background-image: url('../images/mainMenu/mainMenu- background.png'); z-index: 10000; } #loading-screen.active { right: 0px; }

Example 2: Revealing cards .card { display: block; width: 50px; height: 70px; position: relative; -webkit-transition-property: -webkit-transform; -webkit-transition-duration: .5s; -webkit-transform: scale(0, 1); } .card.active { -webkit-transform: scale(1, 1); } myCard.addClassName(‘active’);

-webkit-transition-caveats: a-few; No easy way to cancel animations. Updates don’t happen until the interpreter is idle. It’s “hardware-accelerated” but speed is still an issue. Palm? -webkit-transition-delay doesn’t work.

Other Goodies text-overﬂow: ellipsis; background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, .7); Makes the background 70% opaque. Does not affect opacity of element contents.
