The perspective()
CSS function defines a transformation that sets the distance between the user and the z=0 plane, the perspective from which the viewer would be if the 2-dimensional interface were 3-dimensional. Its result is a <transform-function>
data type.

transform: perspective(none);
transform: perspective(800px);
transform: perspective(23rem);
transform: perspective(6.5cm);

The perspective()
transform function is part of the transform
value applied on the element being transformed. This differs from the perspective
and perspective-origin
properties which are attached to the parent of a child transformed in 3-dimensional space.
Is a <length>
representing the distance from the user to the z=0 plane. The z=0 plane is the plane where everything appears in a 2-dimensional view, or the screen. Values smaller than 1px
(including zero) are clamped to 1px
. Negative values are syntax errors.
Values other than none
cause elements with positive z positions to appear larger, and elements with negative z positions to appear smaller. Elements with z positions equal to or larger than the perspective value disappear as though they are behind the user. Large values of perspective represent a small transformation; small values of perspective()
represent a large transformation; perspective(none)
represents perspective from infinite distance and no transformation.
This transformation applies to the 3D space and can't be represented on the plane.
This transformation is not a linear transformation in â^3, and can't be represented using a Cartesian-coordinate matrix. ( 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 â 1 / d 1 ) \left( \begin{array}{cccc} 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & -\frac{1}{d} & 1 \\ \end{array} \right) Formal syntax<perspective()> =Examples HTML
