Make container shrink-to-fit child elements as they wrap

CSS when inline-block elements line-break, parent wrapper does not fit new width
(2 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I have a set of divs and want the children to be right aligned:
.parent {
width: 150px;
border: solid;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
justify-content: flex-end;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="icon">x
</div>
<div>Toooooooo looooooooong</div>
</div>
When the text breaks in a newline, it still occupies all the space, so it's not at the right. I could use width: min-length, but then all the short texts with spaces break in a new line, and I want it only for the long ones.
Here's the example in CodePen: https://codepen.io/rveciana/pen/eYpyKJX

How can I make a div not larger than its contents?

I have an element that takes 100% of its container's width:
How do I make it so the width of the element is as wide as the text?
I can't find the answer online because I don't know how to formulate the question proprely.
float: left; works but it messes up the surrounding elements as some of them have this porperty as well. Is there another way?
You can set the display: inline-block OR display: inline (depends on your use case) for the element containing the text like so :
.text {
display: inline;
padding: 10px;
background: firebrick;
}
<div class="text">text</div>
<div class="text">text text text</div>

I'm trying to centering vertically my image inside my DIV (it's a square) but I'm a beginner and can't find the correct way. I tried vertical-align: middle; and margin: auto; but nothing. Can you suggest me some methods for that?
Use flex styles.
.user-image {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
}

How do I vertically center text with CSS? [duplicate]

Closed 5 years ago.
The simplest things... Why isn't the text in the below centered vertically? Isn't that what vertical-align: middle does?
<div style="width:100%;height: 300px;background-color: #0047b3;vertical-align: middle;">
Why are you not centered vertically?!?!?!
</div>
If you read some of the flex properties it gets lot easier see below
'
div {
width: 100%;
height: 300px;
background-color: #0047b3;
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
<div>whatever you want to align vertically centre </div>

How does flex-wrap work with align-self, align-items and align-content?
(2 answers)
Closed 5 years ago.
In my application the number of items in a flex container is variable, and I want them to be both vertically and horizontally centred. I'm doing this by using justify-content for horizontal centring, and align-content for vertical centring.
However, reading from CSS Tricks' almanac states the following:
Note, this property has no effect when the flexbox has only a single line.
This becomes quickly apparent in my application. While there aren't enough items to wrap onto another line, vertical centring from align-content doesn't work at all.
As soon as a second line of content appears, align-content kicks in and works as expected.
I'm sure there's a reason for this behaviour, however in my case the result is an inconsistent user experience.
I know that I can achieve vertical centring by other means, for instance by wrapping the entire container in another flexbox, or a table, and applying vertical centring there. However, I feel like there should be a better way?
Is there some other flexbox option I'm missing that would solve this problem without introducing more HTML elements? If so, what is that option? :P
Based on the given facts, you should use align-items instead of align-content
Notes:
align-content works on multi line flexboxes, very well described here: Whats the difference between align-content and align-items
Based on the flex direction, justify-content and align-items alignment direction changes
Column-based
.flex {
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
justify-content: center; /* center vertical */
align-items: center; /* center horizontal */
height: 250px;
border: 1px solid gray
}
.flex * {
margin-bottom: 0; /* removed margin at one side since they
doesn't collapse when flexbox is used */
}
<div class="flex">
<h1>Hey</h1>
<p>How are</p>
<p>we doing</p>
</div>
Row-based
.flex {
display: flex;
justify-content: center; /* center horizontal */
align-items: center; /* center vertical */
height: 250px;
border: 1px solid gray
}
<div class="flex">
<h1>Hey </h1>
<p>How are </p>
<p>we doing</p>
</div>
Using align-items & justify-content together will vertically and horizontally center a single item:
align-items:center; justify-content:center
