`-webkit-transform-2d` CSS media feature

Non-standard: This feature is not standardized. We do not recommend using non-standard features in production, as they have limited browser support, and may change or be removed. However, they can be a suitable alternative in specific cases where no standard option exists.

Note: All browsers support the transform property without vendor prefixes. Only WebKit (Safari), and not Chromium, based browsers supports the -webkit-transform-2d media feature. No browsers support transform, without the prefix or 2d extension, as a media query. Use the @supports (transform) feature query instead.

The -webkit-transform-2d Boolean CSS media feature is a WebKit extension whose value is true if vendor-prefixed CSS 2D transforms and non-standard vendor-prefixed media queries are supported.

Apple has a description in Safari CSS Reference.

Syntax

-webkit-transform-2d is a Boolean CSS media feature whose value is true if the browser supports -webkit prefixed CSS 2D transforms.

Values

true: The browser supports the 2D CSS transforms with the -webkit prefix.
false: The 2D CSS transforms prefixed with -webkit are not supported by the browser.

Examples

Basic example

css

@media (-webkit-transform-2d) {
  div {
    -webkit-transform: translate(100px, 100px);
  }
}

This media feature is only supported by WebKit. The unprefixed transform property is supported in all modern browsers. If possible, use an @supports feature query instead:

css

@supports (-webkit-transform: translate(100px, 100px)) {
  div {
    -webkit-transform: translate(100px, 100px);
  }
}
