As I delve into learning the basics of HTML and CSS, I came across the :hover property in CSS. This unique feature allows for a specific action to occur when the cursor hovers over an element, based on the code provided. Additionally, I discovered the transition tag which enables a smooth transition effect over a designated period of time. However, upon moving the cursor away from the element, it promptly reverts back to its original position without utilizing the transition effect, creating an undesirable outcome. Here is an example of the code I have implemented:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<style>
.required::before {
content: '';
display:block;
width: 10px;
height: 10px;
background-color: red;
border-radius:10px;
}
.required::after {
content: '';
display:inline-block;
width: 10px;
height: 10px;
background: blue;
margin-left: -20px;
}
.required:hover::after{
transform: translateX(100px);
transition: 1s;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<label class = required>Name</label>
</body>
</html>
While hovering over the element causes the cube to move in a smooth motion lasting 1 second, as soon as the mouse moves out, it instantly snaps back to its initial position. My goal is for the cube to smoothly return to its original position within the same specified duration. I hope my explanation is clear enough. Thank you for your assistance.
