# function-parentheses-space-inside Require a single space or disallow whitespace on the inside of the parentheses of functions. ```css a { transform: translate( 1, 1 ); } /** ↑ ↑ * The space inside these two parentheses */ ``` The [`fix` option](../../../docs/user-guide/usage/options.md#fix) can automatically fix all of the problems reported by this rule. ## Options `string`: `"always"|"never"|"always-single-line"|"never-single-line"` ### `"always"` There _must always_ be a single space inside of the parentheses. The following patterns are considered violations: ```css a { transform: translate(1, 1); } ``` ```css a { transform: translate(1, 1 ); } ``` The following patterns are _not_ considered violations: ```css a { transform: translate( 1, 1 ); } ``` ### `"never"` There _must never_ be whitespace on the inside of the parentheses. The following patterns are considered violations: ```css a { transform: translate( 1, 1 ); } ``` ```css a { transform: translate(1, 1 ); } ``` The following patterns are _not_ considered violations: ```css a { transform: translate(1, 1); } ``` ### `"always-single-line"` There _must always_ be a single space inside the parentheses of single-line functions. The following patterns are considered violations: ```css a { transform: translate(1, 1) } ``` ```css a { transform: translate(1, 1 ) } ``` The following patterns are _not_ considered violations: ```css a { transform: translate( 1, 1 ) } ``` ```css a { transform: translate(1, 1) } ``` ```css a { transform: translate( 1, 1 ) } ``` ### `"never-single-line"` There _must never_ be whitespace inside the parentheses of single-line functions. The following patterns are considered violations: ```css a { transform: translate( 1, 1 ) } ``` ```css a { transform: translate(1, 1 ) } ``` The following patterns are _not_ considered violations: ```css a { transform: translate(1, 1) } ``` ```css a { transform: translate( 1, 1) } ``` ```css a { transform: translate( 1, 1 ) } ```
