I'm having a problem with getting the position of a div after rotate
filter is applied to it. I have the position of one end, its height, and the angle by which it is rotated, but after checking what this filter actually does on MDN ("[cos(angle) sin(angle) -sin(angle) cos(angle) 0 0]") I still don't know how to crack it.
Example :
The div I'm interested in is the dashed line. Its styling at that moment was :
left: 80px; top: 12px; height: 69.5122px; width: 2px; -moz-transform: rotate(-1.21366rad);
(top
/left
describe the position of its beginning.) I'm trying to get the top
/left
position of its end.
Per your current Question and your requested confirmation of:
var x = termin.top + Math.cos(angle) * div.height;
var y = div.left + Math.sin(angle) * div.height;
The solution can be found in this other SO Answer for a different question, enhanced here:
// return an object with full width/height (including borders), top/bottom coordinates
var getPositionData = function(el) {
return $.extend({
width: el.outerWidth(false),
height: el.outerHeight(false)
}, el.offset());
};
// get rotated dimensions
var transformedDimensions = function(el, angle) {
var dimensions = getPositionData(el);
return {
width: dimensions.width + Math.ceil(dimensions.width * Math.cos(angle)),
height: dimensions.height + Math.ceil(dimensions.height * Math.cos(angle))
};
};
Here's an interactive jsFiddle that provides real-time updates for getPositionData();
function.
You'll be able to see the top
and left
values at the end of the CSS3 Rotation process you control.

Status Update: The above jsFiddle works great for 0-90deg and can be approved upon for all angles and different units such as rad, grad, and turn.
