So imagine a bootstrap column full of elements (divs, paragraphs, links.. ) how do I space those elements equally inside that column, like space-between alignment or space-around. I don't want margins or padding. I want elements to automatically equally space around the free space vertically inside a column.
In the documentation for flex everything seems to be focused on rows and what little there is for columns it's aligning elements inside a column horizontally.
Any ideas how I can get the desired effect?
The solution could be adding flex positioning to your column as well. So you can add those additional classes that are provided by bootstrap.
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col d-flex flex-column justify-content-between">
<!-- Here comes your content -->
</div>
</div>
</div>
Since you want to evenly space the element is the y axis, you need to add flex-column. Also remember you can nest any number of flex boxes inside another.

I have:
<div id="root" class="container-fluid">
<div>
<div class="row justify-content-center">
<div class="col">
<form>
and the form (which is small widthwise) is not centering. If I add a number to the col div (ie. col-4) then the small column will be centered but the form left-justified within it and starts wrapping weirdly in a small viewport. Moving the justify-... part to the col didn't do anything either.
How am I supposed to go about centering that form element?
I had to include the form-inline class on the form and put the justify-content class on the form as well. the justify class didn't need to go anywhere else.
I've built a page using bootstrap 4. I've added a Carousel with 4 items.
You can see it here: Landing-Page with Bootstrap 4
And here is the Problem: when loading is finished, you'll have some space over the edge. I will say, that you can scroll to the right side and there is more space, that shouldn't.
What I've tried to fix it:
removing slide buttons
using other typs of the carousel
changing pictures/resizing them
commented out other elements like divs and navs, except the carousel
tried other browsers (firefox, chrome, safari)
I hope, it's not a bug.
Thanks for your help
The problem does not appear because of the margins of any row ( as suggested in your accepted answer ) but because some of the rows are not nested inside containers.
See here in the docs grid system bs4
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm">
One of three columns
</div>
<div class="col-sm">
One of three columns
</div>
<div class="col-sm">
One of three columns
</div>
</div>
</div>
And also here bs4 containers where it clearly states that Containers are the most basic layout element in Bootstrap and are required when using our default grid system.
In short the padding of the containers counteract the negative margins of the rows that in turn counteract the paddings of the columns
SOLUTION
Any top-level row you have, you should wrap it inside a container, in your case you should use container-fluid
You can fix the problem by looking at the element #ausbildung (between container and jumbotron).
Its width is 30px bigger than it should!
Try to remove the margins on it.
<div id="ausbildung" class="row" style="height: 50px;"></div>
Bootstrap .row classes use negative margins to account for child elements that contain padding by default. Override the .row styling with
.row {
margin-left: 0px;
margin-right: 0px;
}
and the space and horizontal scrollbar should disappear. Bear in mind if you use .row elsewhere with Bootstrap col's that you may have to adjust your col's accordingly.
I've searched on google and this site for answers on how to vertically align columns to be centered. I've found entries with this exact title but none of them work, they all show how to align horizontally. Even the bootply's etc. links to examples which centers horizontally and not vertically.
I've followed the guide on bootstraps official site, and it is telling me to just use the class align-items-center on the row, or adding align-content-center on the column, but these doesn't work for me at all, I get no response.
Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong here?
This is the guide I used: http://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/layout/grid/#alignment
And I am using the latest bootstrap v4.0.0.beta-2.
Example from my code:
<div class="container">
<div class="row align-items-center">
<div class="col-3"><span>test</span></div>
</div>
</div>
Expected result: Column with the text "test" should be located vertically centered on my page.
Actual result: Text is showing in the left upper corner of the page.
Bootstrap row will contain flex property. With that only we can able to use flex properties for child divs. But here in your example you haven't used row class or d-flex class in your code.
I suggest you to add row into your code..
<div class="container">
<div class="row align-items-center">
<div class="col-3"><span>test</span></div>
</div>
</div>
Now your code will center the text vertically, But within the container height. It won't be center to your html page.
Vertical Center: JS Fiddle
To make Your text to center of your page, make row div to full height 100vh
I have an issue with my CSS layout
I have a form that is contained in a 500 pixel fixed width. It is set to be centered in the page with margin auto;
Inside that div I made a table using div's. Since each div's that act as a table row have different height, I have used the overflow:hidden property. I did that to minimize the size of the form.
Inside that div I have 3 other divs that act like table data "td". They are floating inside the row.
What I am trying to achieve is to display another div on top of them all when there is an error in the form. Just like the one you see on Stackoverflow reminding you that you have code in your text that need to be set as code. The red div on the right. Now I am a bit stuck because I can't overflow that div to the sides.
So what other option do i have to set the height of the "row" div without using overflow:hidden. I dont want to use tables and the content is always changing.
Any solution is welcome.
Here is simple code so you get the picture;
<div class="row">
<div class="overflowing"></div>
<div class="float_left"></div><div class="float_left"></div> <div class="float_right"></div>
</div>
The overflowing div should not push the floating divs around and is not visible until I change it's property and fill it with content.
Use clearfix class with row if you are using bootstrap
<div class="row clearfix">
OR
<div class="clearfix"></div>
before end of row tag
If it is not using bootstrap
<div style="clear:both;"></div>
before end of row tag
`
<div class="float_left"></div><div class="float_left"></div> <div class="float_right"></div>
</div>`
I think it will work, and about the alternative to overflow use fixed height width thenoverflow:auto wolud be useful
I have a two column layout that has 'tiles' within the columns. These tiles are floating divs as well. The desired result is a very tabular layout without using tables.... Like so:
Question: Why in the linked fiddle is my first tile being rendered outside of my container divs?
<div class="column1"></div>
<div class="column2"> <!-- I am floating next to column1 -->
<div class="tile-container">
<div class="tile1"></div>
<div class="tile2"></div> <!-- I am floating next to tile1 within column2 -->
</div>
</div>
FIDDLE
How about http://jsfiddle.net/KtDhX/8/
I've added a #wrapper around your divs and gave it a 1000px width.
I've floated your second column left and your first right and floated both the tiles left so they won't leave their container.
Also try looking into display: inline-block to avoid the sometimes buggy behaviour of float and enables you to remove the position: relative.
My issue was solved by applying float:left to all container div's and tiles div's. This is per CSS 2.1 Specs.
