Create Transformations of a Shape Using HTML5


Introduction

This is a simple application for beginners showing how to create transformations of a shape using HTML 5 and CSS tools. We know that HTML 5 is the advanced version of HTML. Basically HTML 5 can be used to develop 3D applications. This article is intended to help with the use of HTML5 tools to develop transformations of a shape in applications. CSS is the acronym for Cascading Style Sheet that is used for design. CSS defines how HTML elements are to be displayed. The <section> tag defines sections in a document, such as chapters, headers, footers, or any other sections of the document. I hope this article helps to develop transformations of a shape using HTML 5 and CSS tools.

Step 1: Open Visual Studio.

  • Go to file -> New->Projects.
  • Crete an ASP. NET Web Application.
  • Name of "Shape.aspx".

Step 2:
Add a HTML file to your web application.

  • Right-click on the Solution Explorer.
  • Add->add new item->HTML form.
  • The Name of the HTML form is "Transform.html".

Step 3:
In this step we add a CSS file named Style.css. In the CSS we set font-family, font-size, color of a transformations of a shape page. 

  • Right-click on the Solution Explorer.
  • Add-> Add New Item.
  • Add style sheet.
  • Set the name of the style sheet is a "Style.css".

code

body

{

   font-family: "Helvetica Neue";

   font-size: 20px;

   line-height: 30px;

   color: Teal;

}

 

body

{

   padding: 20px;

}

 

h1

{

   margin-bottom: 20px;

}

Step 4: In this section we set styles of a container; they are height, width and border margin of a shape. The container is used to display a shape.

Code

 .con

     {

        width: 400px;

        height: 400px;

        border: 1px solid #0000FF;

        margin: 40px;

     }

    .con figure

       {

        display: block;

        width: 100px;

        height: 100px;

        float: left;

        margin: 15px;

    }

Step 5: In this section we set a shape background color and degree. Degrees are used to set how many degrees to rotate a shape.

Code 

#red figure

   {

     background: red;

    -webkit-transform: perspective( 400px ) rotateX(120deg );

    -moz-transform: perspective( 400px ) rotateX(120deg );

    -ms-transform: perspective( 400px ) rotateX(120deg );

    -o-transform: perspective( 400px ) rotateX(120deg );

     transform: perspective( 400px ) rotateX(120deg );

   }

    #Yellow

     {

    -webkit-perspective: 400px;

    -moz-perspective: 400px;

    -ms-perspective: 400px;

    -o-perspective: 400px;

     perspective: 400px;

   }

Step 6: In this section we set a body content of a transformations shape page. Now we also set a figure that is used to display in a container.

Code

<body bgcolor="#ffcccc">

   <h1 style="background-color: #FF99FF">

   Used HTML5 and CSS

  </h1>

  <section id="red" class="con">

  <figure></figure>

  <figure></figure>

  <figure></figure>

  <figure></figure>

  <figure></figure>

  </section>

</body>

</html>

Step 7: Now in this section we set a complete code demo of a transformations shape page.

Code

<html>

<head>

 <title>Tom application</title>

 <link href="Sheet1.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />

 <style type="text/css">

 .con

     {

        width: 400px;

        height: 400px;

        border: 1px solid #0000FF;

        margin: 40px;

     }

    .con figure

       {

        display: block;

        width: 100px;

        height: 100px;

        float: left;

        margin: 15px;

    }

#red figure

   {

     background: red;

    -webkit-transform: perspective( 400px ) rotateX(120deg );

    -moz-transform: perspective( 400px ) rotateX(120deg );

    -ms-transform: perspective( 400px ) rotateX(120deg );

    -o-transform: perspective( 400px ) rotateX(120deg );

     transform: perspective( 400px ) rotateX(120deg );

   }

    #Yellow

     {

    -webkit-perspective: 400px;

    -moz-perspective: 400px;

    -ms-perspective: 400px;

    -o-perspective: 400px;

     perspective: 400px;

   }
 </style
>

</head> 

<body bgcolor="#ffcccc">

   <h1 style="background-color: #FF99FF">

   Used HTML5 and CSS

  </h1>

  <section id="red" class="con">

  <figure></figure>

  <figure></figure>

  <figure></figure>

  <figure></figure>

  <figure></figure>

  </section>

</body>

</html>

Step 8: Press "Ctrl+F5" to run the application in a browser.

Output

Change a rotation degree; after that 2 different transformation shapes are given below.
