Wrap element to new line/row using flexbox - html

I have trouble forcing an item into the next row in a flexbox layout.
How can I do something like the following image?
This is what I got so far:
#wrap {
display: flex;
width: 86vw;
height: auto;
box-sizing: border-box;
margin: 0 auto;
}
.item1,
.item2 {
width: 50%;
height: 24.5vw;
background: #4add69;
}
.item1 {
margin-right: 10px;
}
.item2 {
margin-left: 10px;
}
.item3 {
width: 60%;
height: 40vw;
background: #d56c6c;
}
<div id="wrap">
<div class="item1"></div>
<div class="item2"></div>
<div class="item3"></div>
</div>

Your code is fine but missing two things.
Use flex-wrap: wrap to
create a new row. Modify the width of the first two items to be
present in a single row.
For the last two items, you need to nest it inside a container and
then wrap them again.
Manipulate the dimension(width, height) and margin values to achieve the perfect/suitable layout.
JSfiddle Demo
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
body {
background: #232323;
padding: 10px;
}
#wrap {
display: flex;
width: 86vw;
height: auto;
box-sizing: border-box;
margin: 0 auto;
flex-wrap: wrap;
background: #232323;
/* Added */
}
.item1,
.item2 {
width: 48%;
/* Modified */
height: 24.5vw;
background: #4add69;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
.item1 {
margin-right: 10px;
}
.item2 {
margin-left: 10px;
}
.item3 {
width: 55%;
height: 40vw;
background: #d56c6c;
margin-right: 10px;
}
.nested-items {
display: flex;
width: 42%;
flex-wrap: wrap;
align-content: space-between;
}
.item4,
.item5 {
background: lightblue;
width: 100%;
height: 49%;
}
<div id="wrap">
<div class="item1"></div>
<div class="item2"></div>
<div class="item3"></div>
<div class="nested-items">
<div class="item4"></div>
<div class="item5"></div>
</div>
</div>

Essentially you need an extra wrapping div for the two 'small' elements like so:
* {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.wrap {
width: 75%;
margin: 1em auto;
border: 1px solid green;
padding: .25em;
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.wrap div {
border: 1px solid grey;
margin-bottom: 1px;
}
.box {
height: 80px;
background: lightblue;
flex: 0 0 50%;
}
.tall {
flex: 0 0 65%;
height: 160px;
}
.col {
flex: 0 0 35%;
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.mini {
flex: 0 0 100%;
height: 80px;
background: pink;
}
<div class="wrap">
<div class="box"></div>
<div class="box"></div>
<div class="box tall"></div>
<div class="box col">
<div class="mini"></div>
<div class="mini"></div>
</div>
</div>
I've used a single overall element here with wrapping but the image suggests that this would be much simpler with actual rows and the extra wrapper mentioned before.

wrap and stretch inputs on form resize

I have two inputs on form in one row. First one should be stretching on form resize, second is of fixed width. But when form is narrowed to a particular breakpont, second input should wrap to second line and stretch as well as first one.
Is it possible to achieve using CSS?
Tried using grid, but it won't wrap at all.
When using flexbox the result is better, but still have to set flex-grow for second input and it's width is not fixed, while inputs are in one row
.box {
background: grey;
padding: 20px 20px 20px 20px;
}
.wrapper {
display: grid;
grid-column-gap: 6px;
grid-row-gap: 6px;
grid-template-columns: minmax(320px, 1fr) 200px;
}
.flexWrapper {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.flex1 {
flex-basis: 320px;
flex-grow: 10;
flex-shrink: 0;
}
.flex2 {
flex-basis: 200px;
flex-shrink: 0;
flex-grow: 1;
}
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="box">One</div>
<div class="box">Two</div>
</div>
<div class="flexWrapper">
<div class="flex1 box">One</div>
<div class="flex2 box">Two</div>
</div>

The easiest way to do this is to use a media query. At 600px I've reset the wrapper to be display: block with the children at 100% width which forces them to stack on top of each other. I've set the width of flex2 to 200px to fix it at that.
.box {
background: grey;
padding: 20px 20px 20px 20px;
}
.flexWrapper {
display: flex;
padding-top: 12px;
column-gap: 6px;
row-gap:6px;
}
.flex1 {
flex: 1;
}
.flex2 {
width: 200px;
}
#media only screen and (max-width: 600px) {
.flexWrapper {
display: block;
}
.flex1, .flex2 {
width: 100%;
}
}
<div class="container">
<div class="flexWrapper">
<div class="flex1 box">One</div>
<div class="flex2 box">Two</div>
</div>
</div>
Using flexbox only and the min-width proprty. Note .flex2 will overflow at container widths less than 200px
.container {
width: 60%;
outline: 1px solid red;
}
.box {
background: grey;
padding: 20px 20px 20px 20px;
}
.flex-wrapper {
display: flex;
padding-top: 12px;
column-gap: 6px;
row-gap:6px;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.flex1 {
flex: 2 0;
}
.flex2 {
min-width: 200px;
flex-grow: 1;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="flex-wrapper">
<div class="flex1 box">One</div>
<div class="flex2 box">Two</div>
</div>
</div>
The final way this can be done is using container queries which are quite well supported now. The max size is applied to the container and not the screen as the example below
* {
box-sizing:border-box;
}
.container {
container-type: inline-size;
container-name: my-container;
width: 60%;
}
.box {
background: grey;
padding: 20px 20px 20px 20px;
}
.flex-wrapper {
display: flex;
padding-top: 12px;
column-gap: 6px;
row-gap:6px;
}
.flex1 {
flex: 1;
}
.flex2 {
width: 200px;
}
#container my-container (max-width: 600px) {
.container {outline: 1px solid red;}
.flex-wrapper {
display: block;
}
.flex1, .flex2 {
width: 100%;
}
}
<div class="container">
<div class="flex-wrapper">
<div class="flex1 box">One</div>
<div class="flex2 box">Two</div>
</div>
</div>

Make content scroll horizontally within nested flex containers with position sticky

I have the following layout (see snippet below).
This is the expected behavior.
The problem is:
Once the extra-large-content is simulated (by removing the comment on the extra-large-content CSS rule), it breaks the layout.
I would like the extra-large-content to scroll horizontally while staying inside column-3.
Is this even possible?
(the code is also available here https://codepen.io/Ploddy/pen/NWXOgMG?editors=1100)
body {
height: 1920px;
margin: 0;
}
.container {
display: flex;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
margin: 1rem;
}
.container > * {
border: 1px solid #ccc;
position: sticky;
top: 0;
align-self: flex-start;
flex-grow: 1;
margin: 1rem;
}
#column-3 {
height: 300px;
}
#extra-large-content {
background-color: lightgreen;
/*width: 3000px;*/
}
<div class="container">
<div>
column-1
</div>
<div class="container">
<div>
column-2
</div>
<div id="column-3">
column-3
<div id="extra-large-content">
extra-large content
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
This should work nicely for you. Essentially, I just specified width's on the .container elements. In theory, you could put overflow-x: scroll; on the .container, however, this would break your sticky positioning.
Edit ~ OP wants the extra-large content to scroll horizontally, not the entire column-3.
Set overflow-x: scroll; on the new parent wrapper of the div that has the 3000px static width.
body {
height: 1920px;
margin: 0;
}
.container:first-child {
max-width: 100%;
}
.container:first-child > div:first-child {
width: 40%;
}
.container:nth-child(2) {
width: 60%;
}
.container:nth-child(2) > div:first-child {
margin: 1em 0em 1em 1em;
}
.container {
display: flex;
border: 1px solid #ccc;
margin: 1rem;
}
.container>* {
border: 1px solid #ccc;
position: sticky;
top: 0;
align-self: flex-start;
flex-grow: 1;
margin: 1rem;
}
.wrapper {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
width: 40%;
}
#column-3 {
background-color: salmon;
}
#extra-large-content {
height: 300px;
width: 3000px;
background-color: lightgreen;
}
.xl-content-wrapper {
overflow-x: scroll;
}
<div class="container">
<div>column-1</div>
<div class="container">
<div>column-2</div>
<div class="wrapper">
<div id="column-3">column-3</div>
<div class="xl-content-wrapper">
<div id="extra-large-content">extra-large content</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The issue comes from using flexbox.
Switching to grid fixes the problem.
body {
height: 1920px;
margin: 0;
}
#primary-container {
position: relative;
display: flex;
margin: 1rem;
}
#secondary-container {
position: relative;
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: max-content 1fr;
align-items: start;
}
#column-3 {
display: grid;
grid-auto-rows: min-content;
height: 200px;
}
#content-wrapper {
overflow: auto;
}
#extra-large-content {
width: 3000px;
background-color: lightgreen;
}
.sticky {
position: sticky;
top: 0;
align-self: flex-start;
}
.border {
border: 1px solid #ccc;
}
<div id="primary-container" class="border">
<div class="sticky">
column1
</div>
<div id="secondary-container" class="border">
<div class="sticky">
column2
</div>
<div id="column-3" class="sticky border">
column3
<div id="content-wrapper">
<div id="extra-large-content">
extra-large content
</div>
</div>

Add responsive image to a website split into 4 responsive boxes

I want to make a website that would consist of 4 boxes each 50% height and width. I found code that does that, but now I struggle to add images into each box. I want each of the four divs to have a different image, and they should scale according to window size. Any help is appreciated.

Not sure if this is what you're trying to achieve but I'd do it with by setting object-fit: contain on images. I also changed a bit the way (css) you're defining the divs.
body {
margin: 0;
}
.container {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.column {
height: 50vh;
width: 50vw;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
padding: 15px;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.column img {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
object-fit: contain;
}
.column:nth-child(1) {
background: #5c9;
}
.column:nth-child(2) {
background: #fb0;
}
.column:nth-child(3) {
background: #39f;
}
.column:nth-child(4) {
background: #f33;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="column"><img src="https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a0846297992_16.jpg"></div>
<div class="column">IMG 2</div>
<div class="column">IMG 3</div>
<div class="column">IMG 4</div>
</div>
I think this is what you are looking for.
Your column img class is set to 100% width and height. I set the height to 50% and the width to auto so it detects the image size and displays it noramlly.
And i simply removed the "object-fit: cover;".
If you change your .colum img {} to the following it should be exactly what you want.
.column img {
height: 50%;
width: auto;
}
I added a snippet so you can see it working.
body {
margin: 0;
}
.container {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.column {
height: 50vh;
width: 50vw;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
padding: 15px;
box-sizing: border-box;
}
.column img {
height: 50%;
width: auto;
}
.column:nth-child(1) {
background: #5c9;
}
.column:nth-child(2) {
background: #fb0;
}
.column:nth-child(3) {
background: #39f;
}
.column:nth-child(4) {
background: #f33;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="column"><img src="https://f4.bcbits.com/img/a0846297992_16.jpg"></div>

How can I have 4 'trays' in each side of a box with flexbox with stretching?

There is a main div (#root) in which I need 4 inner divs, each one on one side fully stretched (run code snippet to see).
Right now I'm in here:
html {
height: 100%;
}
body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
text-align: center;
}
#root {
background-color: blue;
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
flex-wrap: wrap;
justify-content: space-between;
height: 100%;
}
.tray {
box-sizing: border-box;
background-color: red;
border: thin solid black;
}
.tray-top {
height: 48px;
width: 100%;
}
.tray-bottom {
height: 48px;
width: 100%;
align-self: flex-end;
}
.tray-left {
width: 48px;
}
.tray-right {
width: 48px;
}
<div id="root">
<div class="tray tray-top">top</div>
<div class="tray tray-left">left</div>
<div class="tray tray-right">right</div>
<div class="tray tray-bottom">bottom</div>
</div>
Now I want left and right to stretch fully between top and bottom.
Please note that all trays have a fixed width (left, right) or fixed height (top, bottom).
I'd avoid nesting more divs into the existing ones.
Flexbox is not a must but I found it easy and future-proof compared to other possibilities.
A simple float configuration can do this without flexbox:
html,
body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
text-align: center;
}
#root {
background-color: blue;
height: 100%;
}
.tray {
box-sizing: border-box;
background-color: red;
border: thin solid black;
}
.tray-top,
.tray-bottom {
height: 48px;
line-height:48px;
clear: both;
}
.tray-left,
.tray-right {
width: 48px;
height: calc(100% - 96px);
float: left;
}
.tray-right {
float: right;
}
/* to align vertically the content */
.tray-left::before,
.tray-right::before {
content:"";
display:inline-block;
height:50%;
}
<div id="root">
<div class="tray tray-top">top</div>
<div class="tray tray-left">left</div>
<div class="tray tray-right">right</div>
<div class="tray tray-bottom">bottom</div>
</div>
CSS-Grid can do that:
html {
height: 100%;
}
body {
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
text-align: center;
}
#root {
background-color: blue;
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: auto 1fr auto;
grid-template-rows: auto 1fr auto;
height: 100%;
}
.tray {
box-sizing: border-box;
background-color: red;
border: thin solid black;
}
.tray-top {
height: 48px;
grid-column: 1 / -1;
}
.tray-bottom {
height: 48px;
grid-column: 1 / -1;
}
.tray-left {
width: 48px;
}
.tray-right {
width: 48px;
grid-column:3;
}
<div id="root">
<div class="tray tray-top">top</div>
<div class="tray tray-left">left</div>
<div class="tray tray-right">right</div>
<div class="tray tray-bottom">bottom</div>
</div>

Dispay flex row and uniformed sizes

I would like all my element to have the same height and the separator to cover all the height. How can I achieve that please ?
The separator is pink, you can see it here with a height: 5em
.daddy {
height: 10em;
width: 10em;
}
.container {
width: auto;
height: auto;
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
align-items: flex-start;
justify-content: center;
border: 1px solid lightgrey;
}
.child1 {
width: 3em;
height: 10em;
background-color: red;
}
.child2 {
width: 3em;
height: 15em;
background-color: blue;
}
.separator {
width: 10px;
height: 5em;
background-color: pink;
}
<div class="daddy">
<div class="container">
<div class="child1"></div>
<div class="separator"></div>
<div class="child2"></div>
</div>
</div>
If you remove the align items from container, all three columns will grow to fill the row
.daddy {
height: 10em;
width: 10em;
}
.container {
width: auto;
height: auto;
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
border: 1px solid lightgrey;
justify-content:center;
}
.child1 {
width: 3em;
background-color: red;
height: 10em; /* this is just to give it some height as no column currently has any height */
}
.child2 {
width: 3em;
background-color: blue;
}
.separator {
width: 10px;
background-color: pink;
}
<div class="daddy">
<div class="container">
<div class="child1">
</div>
<div class="separator">
</div>
<div class="child2">
</div>
</div>
</div>
