I am trying to create UI with different containers having different input type elements.
Below is code snippet to embed datetime picker in row with label on top and datetime picker below,but its not aligning properly as the datefrom and dateto in the same row.
<div class="container-fluid bg-3 text-center">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-5">
<div class="row justify-content-start">
<div class="input-group date col-sm-6 " data-provide="datepicker">
<label for="DateFrom" class="control-label">Date From</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="DateFrom">
<div class="input-group-addon">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="input-group date col-sm-6" data-provide="datepicker">
<label for="DateTo" class="control-label">DateTo</label>
<input type="text" class="form-control" id="DateTo">
<div class="input-group-addon">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Please let me know how can align the fields in different containers on the screen horizontally inside big container.
What other css rules are effecting the label? it looks like DateTo either has an alignment rule or an offset also. I sugest using the inspect elemt tool and checking the computed style rules on both the label and its containing div. They have the same class so something must be different.

Given:
Codepen
Code:
<form class="mt-lg-3" autocomplete="off">
<div class="form-group row">
<div class="col-sm-3 col-form-label text-sm-right pr-0">
<label for="id-form-field-1" class="mb-0">
Name
</label>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-9" style="background-color:yellow">
<input type="text" class="form-control w-auto" id="id-form-field-1"><i class="fa fa-cogs mr-5"></i>
</div>
</div>
</form>
Required:
Position cogs icon on the right of the input field
Auto-stretch input element width to use all the space available taking into consideration icon's width and margins
Do not use .form-inline class on parent form element
How can this be achieved without using floats?
Thanks!
Is it possible to make all prepend add-ons same width?
i.e in this screenshot I would like Email, License Key 1 & License Key 2 to be the same length, is that possible.
If I did not use add-ons and just used regular labels and a form grid it would be possible but it seems to be the prepend addons look much nicer then regular labels.
Relevant Html is

So this is actually pretty complicated, because each label is in it's own div and not part of a sibling chain. And afaik, Bootstrap does not support this type of sizing, only relative sizing form classes (which essentially only makes the font bigger). That kind of eliminates most possibilities that I can think of using flex/child properties. However, I think hard-coding is not the right word usage in this circumstance. But the idea is the same.
The example of using min-width is not right in this circumstance because min-width !== width=xx. For example, if you set min-width to 50px, but 1 string of text is longer than that, you still have the same problem as above. Essentially, if you don't want to set them all to one specific value, then your only other option is to use Javascript.
Here is my pure CSS workaround:
.input-group-prepend {
width : 35%; /*adjust as needed*/
}
.input-group-prepend label {
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
}
Additionally you could use Boostrap specific inline styling classes, but that's arbitrary and one of the issues with Bootstrap (too many inline classes clutter code, and then you would have to manually add it to each element). Just offering it as an alternative
For example:
<div class="input-group-prepend w-50"> /* grows to 50% of parent*/
<label class="input-group-text w-100" id="licenseEmaillabel"> /* grows to 100% of parent */
Just using the bootstrap classes:
<div class="input-group">
<div class="input-group-prepend col-3">
<span class="input-group-text col-12">Name:</span>
</div>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Name">
</div>
<div class="input-group">
<div class="input-group-prepend col-3">
<span class="input-group-text col-12">Address 1:</span>
</div>
<input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Street Address">
</div>
Looks like this:
Using jquery you could do something like this:
var biggest = Math.max.apply(Math, $('.input-group-text').map(function(){ return $(this).width(); }).get());
$('.input-group-text').width(biggest);
Math.max.apply reads all .input-group-text widths and returns the biggest one. The next line applies this width to all .input-group-text divs.
Sources:
jquery-get-max-width-of-child-divs
add w-50 class to input-group-prepend and
add w-100 class to input-group-text
like this
<div class="input-group">
<div class="input-group-prepend w-50">
<span class="input-group-text w-100">label</span>
</div>
<input type="text" class="form-control " />
</div>
<div class="form-row">
<div class="col-md input-group mb-3">
<div class="input-group-prepend col-5 col-sm-4 col-md-3 col-lg-3 col-xl-2 px-0">
<span class="input-group-text w-100">Label textx</span>
</div>
<input class="form-control" type="text">
</div>
</div>
This will work! Adjust the col grids accordingly for .input-group-prepend!
When using the has-feedback class to add an icon on a form field and using the bootstrap tooltip, the icon moves up. I get the same behavior with chrome, firefox and ie.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-5 col-md-offset-1">
<div class="form-group form-group-lg has-feedback">
<input class="form-control" name="foo" placeholder="foo" data-toggle="tooltip" title="Hooray!" type="text">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-euro form-control-feedback"></span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
JS File
$('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip();
Here the example
Bootply
Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Thank you
The reason for it failing is this Bootstrap selector:
.form-group-lg .form-control+.form-control-feedback {...}
When you hover the field, the tooltip's <div> is inserted immediately after the input, thus breaking the + condition since the icon is no longer immediately following the input. A solution is to move the tooltip on the parent element, so that it doesn't interfere with children styling:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-5 col-md-offset-1">
<div class="form-group form-group-lg has-feedback" data-toggle="tooltip" title="Hooray!">
<input class="form-control" name="foo" placeholder="foo" type="text">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-euro form-control-feedback"></span>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Hi I am not a good UI HTML developer but have to do some fixes on a form. I am surprised that text align is not working on this form. I can see this HTML but don't know how to align text right on label StockEnd.
<div class="col-sm-1">
<label class="control-label col-sm-1" for="StockEnd">End</label>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-2 ">
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" name="StockEnd" class="form-control" id="StockEnd" ng-readonly="readonly" ng-model="Catalogdata.stockTo" ng-disabled="isDisabled" capitalize typeahead="item.number for item in getAutoCompleteStockNumber($viewValue)">
<span class="input-group-btn">
<button class="btn-default btn" type="button" ng-click="stockNumberSearchClick('end')"><i class="fa fa-search"></i></button>
</span>
</div>
</div>
This can be achieved with marginal adjustment to your HTML classes.
First, you must remove .col-sm-1 on your <label>, as this class causes a float:left to be applied to the element, which means any use of text-align will no longer affect it. With that class removed, you can then add .text-right to the parent of the <label>.
In the end, your HTML will look like:
<div class="col-sm-1 text-right">
<label class="control-label" for="StockEnd">End</label>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-2 ">
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" name="StockEnd" class="form-control" id="StockEnd" ng-readonly="readonly" ng-model="Catalogdata.stockTo" ng-disabled="isDisabled" capitalize="" typeahead="item.number for item in getAutoCompleteStockNumber($viewValue)">
<span class="input-group-btn">
<button class="btn-default btn" type="button" ng-click="stockNumberSearchClick('end')"><i class="fa fa-search"></i></button>
</span>
</div>
</div>
Here's a Bootply to demonstrate.
Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
either add text-right class to the parent form-group
OR
modify the label to be display: block with text-right class to do this.
After discussing with my colleague, we made this change and it worked as required. Just removed the class from outer Div and it worked. So Instead of
<div class="col-sm-1">
<label class="control-label col-sm-1" for="StockEnd">End</label>
</div>
it is now
<div >
<label class="control-label col-sm-1" for="StockEnd">End</label>
</div>
Rest is same no change.
I have a row that is split down into various columns and sub-columns. In the proper example there are several more inputs but I've removed them for clarity as they're not needed for this example.
<form id="inputForm" class="form-inline" role="form">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-4">
<label class="control-label">Primary Packaging:</label>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-6">
<label for="pack1Height" class="control-label">Height:</label>
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" id="pack1Height" class="form-control small text-right" />
<span class="input-group-addon">mm</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-2">
<label class="control-label">Vol:</label>
<label class="control-label">999</label>
<label class="control-label">cm<sup>3</sup></label>
</div>
</div>
</form>
If you look at http://jsfiddle.net/53vu25ad/ you can see the issue as "Primary Packaging" and "Vol: 999 cm3" are not vertically aligned within the row - they're top aligned. Is there something I'm missing here?
(ps: On my form, the "height" label and the input element are on the same line, I have no idea why they're not in this jsfiddle, but it's not relevant to the question - I would still expect to see the two labels either side aligned vertically).
Using bleeding-edge not-yet-released Bootstrap v3.2.1: JS Fiddle
The trick is to use a dummy .form-control-static:
<div class="col-xs-4">
<div class="form-group">
<label class="control-label">Primary Packaging:</label>
<p class="form-control-static"> </p>
</div>
</div>
Well without using experimental bootstrap, the way I got around this was adding a simple custom class that matched the form-control element height of 34px.
By setting the row line-height to the same, it automatically valigns content.
.fixedRow {
line-height: 34px;
}
<div class="row fixedRow">
<div class="col-xs-4">
<label class="control-label">Primary Packaging:</label>
</div>

Please find the updated jsfiddle
You may need to use the .form-group class for .form-inline
<form id="inputForm" class="form-inline" role="form">
<div class="form-group">
<label class="control-label">Primary Packaging:</label>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label for="pack1Height" class="control-label">Height:</label>
<div class="input-group">
<input type="text" id="pack1Height" class="form-control small text-right" />
<span class="input-group-addon fw1">mm</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<label class="control-label">Vol:</label>
<label class="control-label">999</label>
<label class="control-label">cm<sup>3</sup></label>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</form>
