带有旋转文本的垂直导航 [英] vertical navigation with rotated text

问题描述

我正在尝试实现具有链接的垂直导航菜单，并且我已使用 css3 将链接文本旋转到 270 度.我旋转了它，因为我希望文本从下到上.问题是当我添加填充顶部时，间距不一致.你可以看到我的代码

I am trying to achieve a vertical navigation menu which has links and I have rotated the links text to 270 degree with css3. I have rotated it because I wanted the text to be bottom to top. The problem is when I add a padding top it is getting inconsistent spacing. you can see my code here. I am unable to understand the different space being taken. I also tried giving li a height but it did not work. Please if someone could help me out. Here is my code:

HTML:

<div class="main-nav">
      <ul class="nav">
        <li><a href="#">HOME</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">METHODOLGY</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">PORTFOLIO</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">SERVICES</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">TEAM</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">CONTACT</a></li>
      </ul>
 </div>

CSS:

.rotate{
    -webkit-transform:rotate(270deg);-moz-transform:rotate(270deg);-o-transform:rotate(270deg);writing-mode:lr-tb}
html, body {
  min-height:100%;
  max-height:100%;
  height:100%;
  font-family:Oswald, sans-serif, Arial;
  font-size:14px;
  background:#fff
}
a {
  text-decoration:none
}
li {
  list-style:none
}
ul {
  padding:0;
  margin:0
}
.main-nav {
  width:45px;
  float:left;
  height:100%;
  position:fixed;
  background:#4c4c4c
}
ul.nav {
  width:21px;
  margin:0 auto
}
ul.nav li:first-child {
  padding-top:35px
}
ul.nav li {
  padding-top:124px
}
ul.nav li a {
  -webkit-transform:rotate(270deg);
  -moz-transform:rotate(270deg);
  -o-transform:rotate(270deg);
  writing-mode:lr-tb;
  float:left;
  width:21px;
  color:#fff
}

解决方案

Rotating each a element or li element will make us encounter some problem spacing, positioning the elements exactly as we want. We should build the navigation menu so that it spreads horizontally, looks OK first then we just to need rotate the whole container of the navigation menu. Here is the updated code:

.main-nav {
  width:100vh;    
  height:45px;
  position:fixed;
  background:#4c4c4c;
  -webkit-transform-origin: left top;
  -webkit-transform:rotate(-90deg) translateX(-100%);
}
ul.nav li {    
  margin-right:20px;
  float:right;
  height:100%;
  line-height:45px;
}

The menu is supposed to have fixed height of 45px (after rotated, it will be the width). We use line-height:45px to center the a element vertically (after rotated, it will be horizontally). At first the .main-nav will lie horizontally like this:

we need to rotate it -90deg (which is counter-clockwise) around the point left - top specified by transform-origin: left top. After rotated, all the .main-nav will be out of view like this:

So we need to translate it down a distance of 100% of width, however note that we don't use translateY which seems to mean translate it vertically, because after rotated, the X axis becomes vertical (not horizontal as before), so we have to use translateX(-100%) (the positive direction is upwards, it's rightwards before rotated). Then we have:

It's just a simple use case related to transform in CSS3. For the vh unit, it's the unit relative to the viewport's height. 100vh means 100% of viewport's height. We have to use 100vh for the width because after rotated, width becomes height. It should fill the full height of the viewport. However you can set some min-width for the width by px to limit the width's minimum value. It's because when you resize the window, the viewport's height may become small and hence the width will be shrunk accordingly. Also note that instead of using float:left for the li elements, we have to use float:right so that the Home menu appears first from top to bottom, otherwise (using float:left), the Home menu will appear at the end (at bottom). There is a little advanced usage of the transform here (to newbie) it we use more than 1 transform for a transform property, all the transforms are separated by space and the order of transforms is important. Such as rotate(-90deg) translateX(-100%) means rotating -90deg first, then translating along the X axis -100%, while translateX(-100%) rotate(-90deg) is reverse to that, it's a totally different thing and of course won't work (makes an unexpected result).
