Intro:
This thread is dedicated to people who started using the Picture elements card.
It contains basic hints for styling elements.
This is not about using the "card-mod" - everything regarding the "card-mod" will be described in the corresponding thread.

Understanding positioning:
Positioning of some element is defined by the "top" & "left" properties.
Position is defined for a “center” of the element which is kind of geometrical center of the element by default.
But the element’s “center” may be re-defined using a "transform: translate()" filter, for example:
-
"translate(-50%,-50%)"- “center” is a geometrical center; -
"translate(0%,0%)"- “center” is a left top corner; -
"translate(-100%,-100%)"- “center” is a right bottom corner.
By default the filter is "translate(-50%,-50%)".
Below some examples for different "translate()" filters are provided:
- type: picture-elements
title: '-'

ha-card { height: 300px !important; }
elements:
- type: state-badge
entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2

left: 0%
transform: translate(0%, 0%)
- type: state-badge

- type: state-badge
entity: sensor.cleargrass_1_co2
style:
top: 0%
left: 80%
transform: translate(0, 100%)
image: /local/images/blue.jpg
Below all elements have "top: 0%" position which corresponds to the top border of the elements’ area, and the "left: 0%" position corresponds to the left border of the elements’ area.
All elements are centered on the top border of the elements’ area - this is because default center’s position is "translate(-50%,-50%)":

When the "translate(0,0)" is useful?
The "translate(0,0)" filter could be useful for transparent png images which are supposed to overlap the main background image, this is basically can be used for floorplans:
- a main plot image is set as a background image with the style
"top: 0, left: 0, translate(0,0)"; - other images are used as transparent masks for displaying dark rooms, plot details like furniture, home appliances & equipment; these images should have the same dimensions as the main background image; for these images the style
"top: 0, left: 0, translate(0,0)"should be used too.

Rotating an element:
First let’s consider a rotation around Z-axis.
In the example below a rotation applied to these elements:
- state-badge;
- state-icon;
- icon;
- state-label;
- service-button;
- image.
There are 2 methods to define an angle:
- by “turns” (1 turn = 360degrees, used in the example below);
- by “degrees”.
By default because of unknown reason a rotation causes changing the "translate()" style - so it causes changing a position too.
To avoid this, the "translate(-50%,-50%)" filter must be used along with the "rotate()" filter.
In the example below the first rotation (+90 degrees, 2nd column) is defined w/o using the "translate(-50%,-50%)" filter, other rotations are defined with it. It is clearly seen that the 1st rotated element changed it’s position.

Below there is an example of rotation around X- & Y-axis (angle is defined by degrees) - for state-badge only.

Scaling an element:
Scaling is achieved by using a "scale()" filter.
Better to use with the "translate(-50%,-50%)" filter as it was explained above.
In the example below the first scaling(0.5, 0.5) is defined w/o using the "translate(-50%,-50%)" filter, other scalings are defined with it. It is clearly seen that the 1st scaled element changed it’s position.
Note: other methods to change an element’s size:
- state-badge - changing a badge’s size (link);
- state-badge, state-label, service-button - changing a font-size (link);
- state-icon, icon - changing an icon’s size (link);

Changing an origin point:
There is some issue with scaling - and it is better to show it with images.
By default the scaled image is scaled “from its center” - that means that original and scaled images are centrally aligned.
To change it, a "transform-origin" function is used.
On the example below:
- the 1st row is with original images;
- the 2nd row is with scaled images (except the left image) - and the scaled images are centrally aligned with respect to the left image and to images on the 1st row;
- the 3rd row is with scaled images (except the left image) - and the scaled images are centrally aligned with respect to the left image and left-aligned to images on the 1st row;
- the 4th row is with scaled images (except the left image) - and the scaled images are top-aligned with respect to the left image and centrally aligned to images on the 1st row.

Large images’ auto-scaling:
There is one more issue regarding scaling - for images whose width is larger than a card’s width.
These images are automatically scaled to fill all available area to the right (keeping aspect ratio):
The example below contains 3 same images:
- the 1st image is placed to the left top corner with
"translate(0,0)"filter and fills the whole card to the right (keeping aspect ratio); - the 2nd & 3rd images are shifted to the right and fill the remained area to the right (keeping aspect ratio).

Changing font-size:
This operation may be applied to:
- state-badge;
- state-label;
- service-button.
For “state-badge” & “state-label” the "font-size" style must be used.
For “service-button” - the "--mdc-typography-button-font-size" variable must be used.
Note that changing the font-size for a badge causes a scaling the badge too.

Other styles for “state-icon” & “icon”:
- colored icon.
The “state-icon” element MUST be associated with some entity, the “icon” element - MAY be associated.
state-icon:
By default for entities like "sensor" (same for "device_tracker", "person", "zone", …) an icon’s color for the “state-icon” does not depend on the entity’s state.
The "--paper-item-icon-color" variable is used to change a color:

'--paper-item-icon-color': red
image: /local/images/white.jpg
By default for entities like "binary_sensor", "sun.sun", "switch", "input_boolean" an icon’s color for the “state-icon” DOES depend on the entity’s state - if the property "state_color: true" is set for the element. If it is set to "false", then the color DOES NOT depend on the state.
The "--paper-item-icon-active-color" & "--paper-item-icon-color" variables are used to change a color.
The "--paper-item-icon-active-color" variable affects on color if the property "state_color: true" is set for the element.
The 1st row on the picture below is for "state_color: true", the 2nd row - for "state_color: false".

Changing Z-order for elements:
By default elements have a Z-index in accordance to the order they are defined in a card.
The example below has one “image” element, some “state-label” elements, some “icon” elements.
Some elements are overlapped by the “image” element by default.
The "z-index" property may be used to change a Z-index:
type: picture-elements
style: |
ha-card {
height: 150px !important;
}
elements:
- type: icon
icon: mdi:car
style:
top: 10%
left: 10%
- type: icon
icon: mdi:car
style:
top: 10%
left: 40%
z-index: 999
- type: state-label
entity: sun.sun
style:
top: 35%
left: 20%
- type: state-label
entity: sun.sun
style:
top: 40%
left: 20%
z-index: 999
- type: image
image: /local/images/pink_mask.png
style:
top: 0%
left: 0%
- type: icon
icon: mdi:car
style:
