I have a navbar that is suppose to align all the page options to the right. However, it does not do this. The entire toolbar is a flexbox
and I've tried using alignSelf: end
but this would only move the text slightly downwards.
I am not sure why it does this because the orientation I've chosen for the toolbar is row and not column.
I have tried removing the options that appear when the screen resizes but this did not work either.
Below is the code that is the issue. I've also commented as to which box is causing the issue. (comment labeled ISSUE)
{/* Issue */}
{/* ABOUT, PROJECTS, CONTACT - full screen */}
<Box sx={{ display: { xs: 'none', md: 'flex' }, alignItems: "flex-end" }}>
{pages.map((page) => (
<Button
key={page}
onClick={handleCloseNavMenu}
sx={{ my: 2, color: 'black', display: 'block' }}
>
{page}
</Button>
))}
</Box>

CodePudding user response:
- You need to use justifyContent or justifySelf to move content on the main axis and alignContent and alignSelf to move content on cross axis, you were using the wrong CSS property since the main axis in this case is row. For more info. regarding flexbox axes please refer to
