CSS3 Gradients

CSS3 gradients allow you to display smooth transitions between two or more specified colors.

Previously, you had to use images to achieve these effects. However, by using CSS3 gradients, you can reduce download events and bandwidth usage. Additionally, elements with gradients look better when zoomed in because the gradient is generated by the browser.

CSS3 defines two types of gradients:

  • Linear Gradients - Down/Up/Left/Right/Diagonally Direction

  • Radial Gradients - defined by their center


CSS3 Linear Gradient

In order to create a linear gradient, you must define at least two color nodes. Color nodes are the colors you want to show a smooth transition. At the same time, you can also set a starting point and a direction (or an angle).

Example of linear gradient:

Syntax

##background: linear-gradient(direction, color-stop1, color-stop2, ...);

Linear gradient - from top to bottom (default)

The example below demonstrates a linear gradient starting from the top. Starting from red, slowly transitioning to blue:

Using angles

If you want more control over the direction of the gradient, you can define an angle instead of a predefined direction (to bottom, to top, to right, to left, to bottom right, etc.).

Syntax

background: linear-gradient(angle, color-stop1, color-stop2);

Angle refers to the angle between the horizontal line and the gradient line, calculated in the counterclockwise direction. In other words, 0deg will create a gradient from bottom to top, and 90deg will create a gradient from left to right.

7B0CC41A-86DC-4E1B-8A69-A410E6764B91.jpg

However, please note that many browsers (Chrome, Safari, Fiefox, etc.) use the old standard, that is, 0deg will create a gradient from left to right, 90deg A gradient will be created from bottom to top. Conversion formula 90 - x = y where x is the standard angle and y is the non-standard angle.

The following example demonstrates how to use angles on a linear gradient:

Example

Using Transparency

CSS3 gradients also support transparency, which can be used to create a faded effect.

In order to add transparency, we use the rgba() function to define color nodes. The last parameter in the rgba() function can be a value from 0 to 1 and defines the transparency of the color: 0 means fully transparent and 1 means fully opaque.

The example below demonstrates a linear gradient starting from the left. Starting from fully transparent, slowly transitioning to fully opaque red:

Example

Linear gradient from left to right, with transparency :

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">

<style>

    height: 200px;
    background: -webkit-linear-gradient(left, rgba(255,0,0,0), rgba(255,0,0,1)); /* Safari 5.1 - 6.0 */
    background: -o-linear-gradient(right, rgba(255,0,0,0), rgba(255,0,0,1)); /* Opera 11.1 - 12.0 */
    background: -moz-linear-gradient(right, rgba(255,0,0,0), rgba(255,0,0,1)); /* Firefox 3.6 - 15 */

<h3>线性渐变 - 透明度</h3>

CSS3 Radial Gradient

A radial gradient is defined by its center.

In order to create a radial gradient, you must also define at least two color nodes. Color nodes are the colors you want to show a smooth transition. At the same time, you can also specify the center, shape (prototype or ellipse), and size of the gradient. By default, the center of the gradient is center (meaning at the center point), the shape of the gradient is ellipse (meaning an ellipse), and the size of the gradient is farthest-corner (meaning to the farthest corner).

Example of radial gradient

Syntax

background: radial-gradient(center, shape size, start-color, ..., last-color);

Radial gradient - color nodes are evenly distributed (by default)

Example
