How to apply multiple transforms in CSS?

by

You have to put them on one line like this:

li:nth-child(2) {
    transform: rotate(15deg) translate(-20px,0px);
}

When you have multiple transform directives, only the last one will be applied. It’s like any other CSS rule.

Keep in mind multiple transform one line directives are applied from right to left.

This: transform: scale(1,1.5) rotate(90deg);
and: transform: rotate(90deg) scale(1,1.5);

will not produce the same result:

.orderOne, .orderTwo {
  font-family: sans-serif;
  font-size: 22px;
  color: #000;
  display: inline-block;
}

.orderOne {
  transform: scale(1, 1.5) rotate(90deg);
}

.orderTwo {
  transform: rotate(90deg) scale(1, 1.5);
}
<div class="orderOne">
  A
</div>

<div class="orderTwo">
  A
</div>
