:active-view-transition CSS pseudo-classThe :active-view-transition CSS pseudo-class matches the root element of a document when a view transition is in progress (active) and stops matching once the transition has completed.
:root:active-view-transition ... {
/* ... */
}This example extends the Basic view transition example on the startViewTransition page.
<main>
<section class="color">
<h2>Color is changing!</h2>
</section>
<button id="change-color">Change Color</button>
</main>A <h2> element initially has a display: none style, and this is overwritten using the :active-view-transition pseudo-class setting the <h2> style to display: block. The button is hidden using visibility: hidden, when the view transition is in progress:
h2 {
display: none;
color: white;
}
:root:active-view-transition h2 {
display: block;
}
:root:active-view-transition button {
visibility: hidden;
}
