Examples

Basic example

Use utilities like perspective-normal and perspective-distant to control how close or how far away the z-plane is from the screen:

perspective-dramatic

perspective-normal

<div class="size-20 perspective-dramatic ...">  <div class="translate-z-12 rotate-x-0 bg-sky-300/75 ...">1</div>  <div class="-translate-z-12 rotate-y-18 bg-sky-300/75 ...">2</div>  <div class="translate-x-12 rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">3</div>  <div class="-translate-x-12 -rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">4</div>  <div class="-translate-y-12 rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">5</div>  <div class="translate-y-12 -rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">6</div></div><div class="size-20 perspective-normal ...">  <div class="translate-z-12 rotate-x-0 bg-sky-300/75 ...">1</div>  <div class="-translate-z-12 rotate-y-18 bg-sky-300/75 ...">2</div>  <div class="translate-x-12 rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">3</div>  <div class="-translate-x-12 -rotate-y-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">4</div>  <div class="-translate-y-12 rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">5</div>  <div class="translate-y-12 -rotate-x-90 bg-sky-300/75 ...">6</div></div>

This is like moving a camera closer to or further away from an object.

Removing a perspective

Use the perspective-none utility to remove a perspective transform from an element:

<div class="perspective-none ...">  <!-- ... --></div>

Using a custom value

Use the perspective-[<value>] syntax to set the perspective based on a completely custom value:

<div class="perspective-[750px] ...">  <!-- ... --></div>

For CSS variables, you can also use the perspective-(<custom-property>) syntax:

<div class="perspective-(--my-perspective) ...">  <!-- ... --></div>

This is just a shorthand for perspective-[var(<custom-property>)] that adds the var() function for you automatically.

Responsive design

Prefix a perspective utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:

<div class="perspective-midrange md:perspective-dramatic ...">  <!-- ... --></div>

Learn more about using variants in the variants documentation.

Customizing your theme

Use the --perspective-* theme variables to customize the perspective utilities in your project:

@theme {  --perspective-remote: 1800px; }

Now the perspective-remote utility can be used in your markup:

<div class="perspective-remote">  <!-- ... --></div>
