There could be a few reasons why transform: translateX() and translateY() properties are not working in your CSS code. Here are some common issues and solutions that you can try:
1. **Incorrect Syntax**: Make sure you are using the correct syntax for the translateX() and translateY() functions. The translateX() function moves an element horizontally while translateY() function moves it vertically. Double-check that you are passing the correct values as arguments within the parentheses.
Example:
.element {
transform: translateX(50px) translateY(50px);
}
2. **Missing Vendor Prefixes**: Some older browsers require vendor prefixes for CSS properties. Ensure that you have included the necessary prefixes for transform property to ensure cross-browser compatibility.
Example:
.element {
-webkit-transform: translateX(50px) translateY(50px);
transform: translateX(50px) translateY(50px);
}
3. **Parent Element Constraints**: The translateX() and translateY() functions move an element relative to its current position. If the parent element has a property like overflow: hidden that restricts the movement of its children, the translation may not be visible. Check the styles of the parent elements to ensure they are not interfering with the translation.
4. **Other Transform Properties**: If you are using other transform properties alongside translateX() and translateY(), ensure that they are not conflicting with each other. The order of transform functions matters, so make sure you apply the transformations in the correct sequence.
5. **Element Display**: Elements need to be displayed as block, inline-block, flex, or grid to be able to apply transformations to them. If the element is set to display: none or visibility: hidden, the transformations will not be visible.
