Does Chrome 12 really support CSS 3D transforms? Including on Linux?

Question

I'm using Chrome 12 in a Linux 64bit box, but I can't get any of the samples bellow to work:

• http://www.satine.org/research/webkit/snowleopard/snowstack.html
• http://www.marcofolio.net/css/3d_animation_using_pure_css3.html
• http://kevchapman.co.uk/css/webkit-css-perspective-demo/

They all use -webkit-perspective, but the final results differ a lot from the results got in Safari (Windows XP). So, after all, does Chrome support CSS 3D transforms? Or the support is still limited?

Thanks!

Answer 1

Go to the Chromium web SCM interface and check that your GPU isn't blacklisted.

Also, go to chrome://gpu/ and check that Chrome reports 3D CSS as enabled.

Answer 2

The problem is that 3d support in webkit browsers depends on your videocard. That's why you cannot see that examples, but your browser engine still supports 3d transforms. To resolve this problem you can use Modernizr, which detects browser+videocard 3dtranforms support.

Answer 3

I'm using Chrome on a Windows 7 machine right now, and all the demos seemed to behave exactly as they should have. Have you tried Chrome on your XP machine?
