I have a logo I created using a div and two letters which I want to move inside the coral colored div. However every time I change left/right properties or margin/padding I end up changing the letter placement in the design.
I tried playing around with the CSS using developer tools but I'm still having trouble.
Is there a better way I could use to move the logo itself and maybe make it a big smaller inside the coral div? This is what I'm trying to do screenshot. *note: screenshot is from Figma but I'm trying to code what it looks like

CodePudding user response:
Make the following changes to .logo-container {...}
:
Inside
.logo-container {...}
, includeposition: relative
(to make absolute postioning of.box
with respect to it, work). Then remove themargin
,left
andright
values.The
margin
property isn't necessary in.logo-container
since it will cue its margins from the grid placement of its parent.logo
.The
left
andright
properties aren't needed as well for the same reason as above (and also since, settingposition: relative
produces defaults oftop: 0
andleft: 0
); remember, you are trying to position the.box
div which houses the letters, not.logo-container
itself. You should rather position.box
from its own rule set.
If you need padding around .logo-container
set it within its parent: .logo
Here's what .logo-container
rule should look like:
.logo-container {
position: relative;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
}
.box {
// Position me (w/ margin, left and right) from here instead
// if you wish to.
}
.logo {
...
// put padding around .logo-container here.
}
And Voilà! Problem fixed!
If you want the .parent
div to take the full height of the viewport (i.e screen), you may set height: 100vh
in its CSS rule:
.parent {
...
height: 100vh;
}
Alternatively (much better way):
html,
body {
height: 100%;
}
.parent {
height: 100%;
}
If you need to remove browser default box-sizing, margin and padding properties, then add this rule set at the top of your CSS file or section:
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
