In my example when a user hovers over a text that is too long for its container
it will start scrolling so the entire content can be read.
My problem is that I don't know how to adjust the transition duration
according to the length of the content.
I want that the text scrolls with a consistent speed across all containers.

How can I keep a label and it's text starting on the same place?
For example, what I want to achieve:
☑️ Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
consectetur adipiscing elit.
And here is my attempt:
div {
width:300px;
}
label:before {
content: "";
display: inline-block;
margin-right: 10px;
height: 15px;
width: 15px;
border: 2px solid #666;
border-radius: 3px;
background-color: #fff;
transition: background-color 0.2s;
}
<div>
<label>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nunc at molestie mi.</label>
</div>
You could use flexbox from CSS like so:
div {
width:300px;
}
/* lines I added */
label{
display: flex;
align-items:flex-start;
}
label:before {
content: "";
display: inline-block;
margin-right: 10px;
height: 15px;
width: 15px;
/* line I added */
flex:none;
border: 2px solid #666;
border-radius: 3px;
background-color: #fff;
transition: background-color 0.2s;
}
<div>
<label>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nunc at molestie mi.</label>
</div>
The look I'm trying to achieve is if you have black text on a white page, but that text runs into an image. The section of text that is over the image changes it's colour.
I have a 'working' (not flexible) example here using a data attribute to grab the same text and set it on the :before element using content:

The problem with this is if...
I adjust the width of the container, all the values are off and it looks broken.
the title is longer and wraps onto multiple lines, it is cut off due to the overflow
And why the widths are what they are on the :before element (if someone could explain that'd be great ha)
So I tried a version using px values instead of % which fixes the issues of changing the container width. However I still have the issue of it not behaving right when text wraps onto 2 lines.
Example (using px): https://codepen.io/moy/pen/JjXoMvb
Can anyone think of a better solution for this? Am I overcomplicating this or missing something obvious?
Edit: PX example wrong incorrect, updated link now.
Use the CSS clip-path property
Example
:root {
--size: 100px;
}
.resizable {
border: 2px solid black;
width: calc(var(--size) * 3);
height: calc(var(--size) * 2);
resize: both;
overflow: auto;
}
.container {
position: relative;
}
.divider {
height: 100px;
}
.title {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
margin: 0;
}
img {
width: var(--size);
height: var(--size);
}
.left {
color: blue;
clip-path: polygon(0 0, var(--size) 0, var(--size) var(--size), 0 var(--size));
}
.right {
color: red;
clip-path: polygon(var(--size) 0, 100% 0, 100% 100%, 0 100%, 0 var(--size), var(--size) var(--size));
}
.container-reverse img {
float: right;
}
.container-reverse .left {
clip-path: polygon(100% 0, 100% var(--size), calc(100% - var(--size)) var(--size), calc(100% - var(--size)) 0);
}
.container-reverse .right {
clip-path: polygon(0 0, calc(100% - var(--size)) 0, calc(100% - var(--size)) var(--size), 100% var(--size), 100% 100%, 0 100%);
}

Which currently looks like this image:
I have tried using shape-outside but it doesn't work and I believe it's because the image is being set to absolute.
This is the stethoscope image. White image, no background.
first of all move your image inside of your container-text and then give border to the right and bottom of it and use pseudo selectors :after and :before for the left border and top border.

Thank You...
Your image has a transparent background, and it appears above the border. To fix that, you can set the border on an absolutely positioned pseudo-element (::before), and use clip-path to remove the top left corner:
.quote-container {
padding: 5em;
background: steelblue;
}
.quote-container-text {
position: relative;
width: 65%;
padding: 2em;
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
color: white;
}
.quote-container-text::before {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
border: 2px solid white;
clip-path: polygon(55px 0%, 100% 0%, 100% 100%, 0% 100%, 0% 55px, 55px 55px);
content: '';
}
.testimonial-img {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}
body {
margin: 0;
}
<div class="quote-container">
<div class="quote-container-text">
<img class="testimonial-img" src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/nj8on.png" alt="">
<h3>Testimonial Quote</h3>
<p>"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aenean mollis<br/>erat vel ultricies imperdiet. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur<br/> adipiscing elit. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscingelit."
</p>
</div>
</div>
An easy way to do this would be to use an image with a background color the same as the background color of the outermost container. Also, it's important to realize that setting something to absolute will make it absolute to the innermost container that has a relative positioning. Note that I used some random image from the web for the example, but you can conform it to your image. If you want your transparent image to have a background, wrap it in a div and set the background of the div.
First move the image inside the quote container text.
<div class="quote-container">
<div class="quote-container-text">
<div id="test-img-container">
<img class="testimonial-img" src="https://cdn3.iconfinder.com/data/icons/medical-174/100/healthy-06-512.png" alt="">
</div>
<h3>Testimonial Quote</h3>
<p>"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Aenean mollis<br/>erat vel ultricies imperdiet. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur<br>
adipiscing elit. Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscingelit."
</p>
</div>
</div>
Next set the image to absolute with top and left stylings and make the quote-container-text element to be relatively positioned:
.quote-container {
padding: 5em 0;
height: 100%;
background:steelblue;
}
#test-img-container{
position: absolute;
left:-25px;
top:-25px;
background:steelblue;
}
.testimonial-img {
width:50px;
height:auto;
}
.quote-container-text {
text-align: center;
color: white;
margin-top: 2em;
border: 2px solid white;
width: 65%;
padding: 2em;
position:relative;
margin: auto;
}
Also note that this works best if you specify a hard width to the image so that you can evenly use the margin stylings on the image.

I want to display text at the center of my 4 images. No matter what I do it doesn't display at all or display on the top of the page.
Somebody, please help me!
By the way, does anybody know how to make banner-text always stay the same (the same as at 100%) when zooming?

The key is to create a wrapper to hold your image and text. Then add position relative to that wrapper. And then to the text inside it, add top 50% and then lift it half of its height by adding transform translateY(-50%).
If you want the same for X axis, use left 50% and translateX(-50%).

To make the banner text central in the banner you could try:
#banner-text {
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%,-50%);
font-size: 42px;
color: #ffffff;
}
Its worth noting that the transform won't work on older versions of IE.
I want to display text at the center of my 4 images.
No matter what I do it doesn't display at all or display
on the top of the page.
You have two problems:
The "absolute" position declaration for the "img__description". The absolute position rule you have used on the text (<p class="img__description">...</p>) places all 4 texts in the upper left hand corner of the page. Declare a relative position for the text, and then give the text something to be relative to. (See next point).
Structure: No relation exists between each img and text pair There is currently no container or relationship tying any of the text elements (<p class="img__description">...</p>) to any of your 4 images: <img class="img__img" src="..." />.
It will be difficult to position the text relative to the appropriate image without a wrapper. Consider either:
moving the image inside each paragraph, and moving your positioning and sizing rules to the paragraph, which will act like a wrapper;
or add a <div> around each image and text pair, and subsequently move your positioning and sizing rules to the new <div> wrapper
Either of these wrapper options will also constrain the height and width of the text, which you also need.
Currently, I am using units: "vw" to make my textbox responsive.

Here are some errors that I'd like to be corrected but not sure how to:
1.) Is VW being used properly here? Is there a better solution?
2.) I'd like the height of each section to expand based on the content within while maintaining a min-height of each section (635px for the first and 488 for the second) because right now when re-sizing the browser smaller, the content overlaps anything underneath it.
Is there any problem using this solution? Is there a better solution?
Is this it? If not, let me know.

Please note I've also made a few adjustments to the html markup. Cheers!
jsFiddle
Question 1
It is perfectly fine to use vw this way. Percentage widths can generally do the same things as vw, but since you have some nesting, you would have to mess with the parent's widths to make percentages work. (This use case was noted by Chris Coyier.)
The nesting I'm talking about is <div class="section">s. Since the margins on the <body element have not been reset, these sections (on some browsers) end up a little narrower than the viewport. To use percentages, you would have to do this:
/* Reset margins */
body, html {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
/* Now use percentages */
.about-us-info {
width: 46.9%;
}
span.span-header {
width: 47.4%;
}
Note vw has more issues with browser support (look at the known issues tab).
Question 2
In the code given, the text boxes are using position: absolute as part of the centering. Absolute positioning takes elements out of the document flow, and that is the reason the sections are not expanding to fit the content. If you want them to expand properly, you will need to use a different centering technique.
CSS table centering (as shown in the link above) would work:
<!-- First wrap your text boxes with containers... -->
<div class="section" id="second">
<div class="container">
<div class="about-us-info">
<!-- ... -->
</div>
</div>
</div>
Then remove the current absolute-based centering on the text boxes and add the following:
/* Make the parent a table: */
.section {
display: table;
width: 100%;
}
/* Make the container a table cell and center it: */
.container {
display: table-cell;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
}
