How to resize image in bootstrap carousel? - html

Question

How to change from this
To this?
I want to shorten the width of the image in this carousel, but not the actual red box. How can i do it? I'm at my wits end. I tried every solution on this forum, it doesn't shrink it the way i show it in the picture.
<div class="container box">
<div class="row">
<!-- carousel -->
<div class="col-xs-8">
<div id="carousel-example-generic" class="carousel slide"
data-ride="carousel">
<!-- Indicators -->
<ol class="carousel-indicators">
<li data-target="#carousel-example-generic" data-slide-to="0"
class="active"></li>
<li data-target="#carousel-example-generic" data-slide-to="1"></li>
<li data-target="#carousel-example-generic" data-slide-to="2"></li>
</ol>
<!-- Wrapper for slides -->
<div class="carousel-inner" role="listbox">
<div class="item active">
<img
src=""
alt="..." />
</div>
<div class="item">
<img src="" alt="..." />
</div>
<div class="item">
<img src="" alt="..." />
</div>
...
</div>
<!-- Controls -->
<a class="left carousel-control" href="#carousel-example-generic"
role="button" data-slide="prev"> <span
class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-left" aria-hidden="true"></span>
<span class="sr-only">Previous</span>
</a> <a class="right carousel-control" href="#carousel-example-generic"
role="button" data-slide="next"> <span
class="glyphicon glyphicon-chevron-right" aria-hidden="true"></span>
<span class="sr-only">Next</span>
</a>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-4"></div>
</div>
</div>

try:
.carousel-inner .item img {
width: 100%; /* or width: 100% !important; */
}

Try this:
.carousel-inner > .item > img {
width:100%; /* Or try to use important */

You can use the following to resize an image in Bootstrap Carousel:
.carousel-inner .item img {
height: 100%;
width: 100% !important;
}

Answer 4

I had a similar problem and I solved it through some inline styling.
<div class="carousel-item">
<img
src="images/image.png"
alt="testImg"
style="height: 537px"
/>
</div>
I just used Google Chrome inspect elements to get the height of an image I was happy with and styled the problem images, as I only had some images in my carousel that didn't work properly.
-Note- styling the images like this did also adjust the positions of the indicators correctly in my testing so this shouldn't be a problem with changing the Width as well as the Height if you need.
I did try the other solutions posted here but none seemed to work. So hopefully this will help someone out.
