redraw-dom

Forces the browser to synchronously redraw a DOM node.

Anytime you've got some weird bug with the browsing not updatig the look of your element, you might need to force a repaint/redraw. This snippet will do the trick!

Before using this, you might want to try the backface-visibility: hidden; hack or using will-change (as seen here) since this is the "official" way to go.

API

• redraw(el, display)

redraw the el element (must be a DOM node). display is the display style you want restored on the element (defaults to block).

Example

var redraw = require('redraw-dom');

var el = document.querySelector('.el-redraw');
redraw(el);

el.style.display = 'inline';
redraw(el, 'inline'); // Preserve the inline display
