The CSSPositionValue interface of the CSS Typed Object Model API represents values for properties that take a position, for example object-position.

Constructor

CSSPositionValue(): Creates a new CSSPositionValue object.

Properties

CSSPositionValue.x: Returns the item's position along the web page's horizontal axis.
CSSPositionValue.y: Returns the item's position along the vertical axis.

Methods

None.

Examples

The following example positions a container <div> 5 pixels from the top and 10 pixels from the left of the page.

let replacedEl = document.getElementById( 'image' );
let position = new CSSPositionValue( CSS.px(35), CSS.px(40) );

replacedEl.attributeStyleMap.set( 'object-position', position );
console.log( position.x.value, position.y.value );
console.log( replacedEl.computedStyleMap().get('object-position') );

We set the object-position property, then check the values returned.

#image {
  width: 300px;
  height: 300px;
  border: 1px solid black;
  background-color: #dededf;
  object-fit: none;
}

<p>Check the developer tools to see the log in the console and to inspect the style attribute on the image.</p>
<img id="image" src="mdn.svg" alt="MDN Logo"/>
