Disable/turn off inherited CSS3 transitions

People also ask

How do you stop a transition in CSS?

To trigger an element's transition, toggle a class name on that element that triggers it. To pause an element's transition, use getComputedStyle and getPropertyValue at the point in the transition you want to pause it. Then set those CSS properties of that element equal to those values you just got.

Is transition inherited CSS?

CSS3 Transition Properties Are Not Inherited (In AngularJS)

What triggers CSS transition?

Triggering transitions You can trigger CSS transitions directly with pseudo classes like :hover (activates when the mouse goes over an element), :focus (activates when a user tabs onto an element, or when a user clicks into an input element), or :active (activates when user clicks on the element).

Why do you use CSS3 transitions?

CSS transitions provide a way to control animation speed when changing CSS properties. Instead of having property changes take effect immediately, you can cause the changes in a property to take place over a period of time.


The use of transition: none seems to be supported (with a specific adjustment for Opera) given the following HTML:

<a href="#" class="transition">Content</a>
<a href="#" class="transition">Content</a>
<a href="#" class="noTransition">Content</a>
<a href="#" class="transition">Content</a>

...and CSS:

a {
    color: #f90;
    -webkit-transition:color 0.8s ease-in, background-color 0.1s ease-in ;  
    -moz-transition:color 0.8s ease-in, background-color 0.1s ease-in;  
    -o-transition:color 0.8s ease-in, background-color 0.1s ease-in;  
    transition:color 0.8s ease-in, background-color 0.1s ease-in; 
}
a:hover {
    color: #f00;
    -webkit-transition:color 0.8s ease-in, background-color 0.1s ease-in ;  
    -moz-transition:color 0.8s ease-in, background-color 0.1s ease-in;  
    -o-transition:color 0.8s ease-in, background-color 0.1s ease-in;  
    transition:color 0.8s ease-in, background-color 0.1s ease-in; 
}
a.noTransition {
    -moz-transition: none;
    -webkit-transition: none;
    -o-transition: color 0 ease-in;
    transition: none;
}

JS Fiddle demo.

Tested with Chromium 12, Opera 11.x and Firefox 5 on Ubuntu 11.04.

The specific adaptation to Opera is the use of -o-transition: color 0 ease-in; which targets the same property as specified in the other transition rules, but sets the transition time to 0, which effectively prevents the transition from being noticeable. The use of the a.noTransition selector is simply to provide a specific selector for the elements without transitions.


Edited to note that @Frédéric Hamidi's answer, using all (for Opera, at least) is far more concise than listing out each individual property-name that you don't want to have transition.

Updated JS Fiddle demo, showing the use of all in Opera: -o-transition: all 0 none, following self-deletion of @Frédéric's answer.


If you want to disable a single transition property, you can do:

transition: color 0s;

(since a zero second transition is the same as no transition.)


Another way to remove all transitions is with the unset keyword:

a.tags {
    transition: unset;
}

In the case of transition, unset is equivalent to initial, since transition is not an inherited property:

a.tags {
    transition: initial;
}

A reader who knows about unset and initial can tell that these solutions are correct immediately, without having to think about the specific syntax of transition.


Based on W3schools default transition value is: all 0s ease 0s, which should be the cross-browser compatible way of disabling the transition.
