javascript - Is it possible to force hardware acceleration on a CSS width transition - Stack Overflow

I have noticed jerky laggy performance when I change an elements width or margin with CSS transitions.

Is there anyway to force hardware acceleration? Is there any way to use transform properties to achieve a seamingly similar result?

• could you fiddle an example? Id like to see what you mean. – floor Commented Feb 23, 2015 at 22:14

• 1 You could always scaleX(2.0) on your desired element and scaleX(0.5) on its children. It's a pretty crappy solution though as the content won't reflow to the new size. – Josh Burgess Commented Feb 23, 2015 at 22:23
• @josh. Could work though with overflow hidden. – Walrus Commented Feb 23, 2015 at 22:51
• I don't see how overflow: hidden would help that, as the content is just going to be its original size in a container that's twice as wide. Really, you'd need to add content dynamically after the resize. There's not a way I intuitively know to do this without incorporating some kind of JavaScript. It's probably not a lot of JavaScript, but there would need to be a bination of JavaScript and probably layering of sibling divs, which is messy to say the least. – Josh Burgess Commented Feb 24, 2015 at 3:40

Not really. Hardware acceleration depends on a lot of factors, none of them under javascript control.

Which leaves us the question of how to improve CSS width/margin transition performance, and the answer is usually "replace it with scale", because it can be done cheaply on GPU and because it doesn't trigger reflow.

It is also known that Chrome does not do as well a job accelerating CSS transitions as Firefox and IE.

In fact, given that Google rejected Pointer Event on the ground of speed, which IE solved by GPU acceleration, it can be said that Chrome (and Webkit in general - Safari is even slower) is lagging behind on this front, and the only way to help is contributing code to Chromium / Webkit.

I'd rather switch to a quicker transition.
