Is there any? All the operations you listed above happen in the local coordinate space of the element the effects get applied to. CSS Transforms modifies this coordinate space of the element (not the element itself). A pixel still is a pixel in the local coordinate space of the element. It is the outside perception that changes. Therefore, a CSS Transform is outside of the order. Implementations probably will still track transformations to avoid pixelation on filter, masking or blending operations. Greetings, Dirk > > //emil
