CSS3 transform-origin
not working in firefox browser.
I am trying to run transform: rotate(360deg);
in @keyframes
for <g class="tyre">
as child of <svg class='truck'>
. In the result the truck wheel rotation works fine for all other browser except chrome
There are similar questions in Stack Overflow unfortunately none of them are related with the question.

transform: rotate(0);

animation: spin 1s linear infinite;
}
@-webkit-keyframes spin {
from { transform: rotate(360deg); }
to { transform: rotate(0deg); }
}
@keyframes spin {
from { transform: rotate(360deg); }
to { transform: rotate(0deg); }

To summarise the comments you have been getting:
The transform-origin
property with percentage values on SVG elements has been broken in Firefox, and has only just been fixed/implemented.
The meaning of transform-origin: 50% 50%
when applied to SVG elements has not been fully specified until recently. Chrome used the centre of the element's bounding box. Firefox uses the centre of the SVG.
How percentage origins are to be calculated has only recently been decided. There is a new property called transform-box
. See: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-transforms/#transform-box
The default value of transform-box
for SVG elements is view-box
(typically the centre of the whole SVG). However Chrome currently uses the equivalent of fill-box
.
In summary, you should not rely on Chrome's behaviour. It is probably going to change to match what is specified by the new transform-box
property.
If you want to have your SVG work now on both browsers, don't use percentage values in transform-origin
. Use absolute coordinates. See example below.

In the future, you will be able to do:
transform-origin: 50% 50%;
transform-box: fill-box;
But not until transform-box
is supported properly in all browsers.
I recently encountered the same problem.
Wheels wheeled around the entire cart and not around its axis. In all browsers the transform-origin
properties helped.
transform-origin: 50% 50% 0px;
But not in Mozilla.
For Mozilla i used static values in pixels.
-moz-transform-origin: 136px 110px 0px;
My codepen example
You could use this function to save up some time calculating these static positions. Just pass x, y percent values, a selector and execute right in the browser console:
;(function getStaticCoords(x, y, elementId) {
var coord = $(elementId)[0].getBBox()
var coordW = coord.width * x / 100
var coordH = coord.height * y / 100
return coord.x + coordW + 'px ' + (coord.y + coordH / 2 + 'px')
})(50, 50, '#myDOMElement')
