I want to create menu where I need a feature like if any user hover the menu there will be a border and the border bottom only. I want to display the bottom border like trapezoid.
In my case i don't have a div for border, its only border-bottom.
Here is what I've tried:
#myDiv{
background: #FED;
border-bottom: 5px solid red;
}
<div id="myDiv">
My div, I want to make my border bottom like trapezoid.
</div>
How can I achieve this?
If I get your correctly, you want to set the border shaped as triangle trapezoid after #myDiv. This is basically how you can do it with css..
#myDiv:after {
content: "";
display: block;
border-left: 1vw solid transparent;
border-top: 10px solid red;
border-right: 1vw solid transparent;
}
<div id="myDiv">
My div, I want to make my border bottom like triangle.
</div>
#myDiv {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
}
#myDiv:after {
content: "";
display: block;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-left: 20px solid transparent;
border-right: 20px solid transparent;
border-top: 20px solid #f00;
left: 50%;
position: absolute;
margin-left: -10px;
bottom:-20px;
display: none;
}
#myDiv:hover {
border-bottom: 3px solid #f00;
}
#myDiv:hover:after {
display: block;
}
<div id="myDiv">
My div, I want to make my border bottom like triangle.
</div>
#myDiv {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
}
#myDiv:after {
content: "";
display: block;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-left: 20px solid transparent;
border-right: 20px solid transparent;
border-top: 20px solid #f00;
left: 50%;
position: absolute;
margin-left: -10px;
bottom:-20px;
display: none;
}
#myDiv:hover {
border-bottom: 3px solid #f00;
}
#myDiv:hover:after {
display: block;
}

CSS triangle custom border color

I am trying to add red borders to the triangle in the top left corner of the dropdown. But the problem is that the triangle itself is built as borders. So I've got no idea how to do that. Help me please.
.dropdown {
position: relative;
vertical-align: middle;
display: inline-block;
}
.dropdown-content {
position: absolute;
min-width: 160px;
background-color: yellow;
padding: 12px 16px;
margin-top: 20px;
z-index: 1;
border-color: red;
border-width: thin;
border-style: solid;
}
.dropdown-content a{
display: block;
}
.dropdown-content:after {
position: absolute;
left: 70%;
top: -20px;
width: 0;
height: 0;
content: '';
border-left: 20px solid transparent;
border-right: 20px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 20px solid yellow;
}
<div class='dropdown'>
<div class="dropdown-content">
Link 1
Link 2
Link 3
</div>
</div>
You can add the triangle borders with another pseudo element.
.dropdown-content:before,
.dropdown-content:after {
position: absolute;
left: 70%;
width: 0;
height: 0;
content: '';
border-left: 20px solid transparent;
border-right: 20px solid transparent;
border-bottom-width: 20px;
border-bottom-style: solid;
}
.dropdown-content:before {
top: -21px; /* extra -1 pixel offset at the top */
border-bottom-color: red;
}
.dropdown-content:after {
top: -20px;
border-bottom-color: yellow;
}
.dropdown {
position: relative;
vertical-align: middle;
display: inline-block;
}
.dropdown-content {
position: absolute;
min-width: 160px;
background-color: yellow;
padding: 12px 16px;
margin-top: 20px;
z-index: 1;
border-color: red;
border-width: thin;
border-style: solid;
}
.dropdown-content a {
display: block;
}
.dropdown-content:before,
.dropdown-content:after {
position: absolute;
left: 70%;
width: 0;
height: 0;
content: '';
border-left: 20px solid transparent;
border-right: 20px solid transparent;
border-bottom-width: 20px;
border-bottom-style: solid;
}
.dropdown-content:before {
top: -21px; /* extra -1 pixel offset at the top */
border-bottom-color: red;
}
.dropdown-content:after {
top: -20px;
border-bottom-color: yellow;
}
<div class='dropdown'>
<div class="dropdown-content">

And this: CSS triangle custom border color
Hi I am trying to create a custom arrow in CSS that looks like the image below.
Ideally I want to create this by overlaying two shapes a triangle and a rectangle (maybe using CSS :after and :before) but I'm not too savvy when it comes to CSS so I have been struggling.I started by just using borders but doesn't look like it is going to work
So far I just have:
.arrow {
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-top: 60px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 60px solid transparent;
border-left: 60px solid #ccc;
}
<div class="arrow"></div>
Not too hard to make using the :before pseudo element and some transforms:
.container {
padding: 100px;
}
.arrow {
display: inline-block;
height: 150px;
background: #000;
width: 75px;
}
.arrow:before {
content: "";
border-top: 100px solid #000;
border-left: 100px solid transparent;
border-right: 100px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 100px solid transparent;
transform: rotateZ(180deg) translateY(100%) translateX(31%);
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="arrow"></div>
</div>
Here's another option.
.arrow{
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-top: 60px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 60px solid transparent;
border-left: 60px solid #ccc;
position: relative;
margin: 0 0 0 100px;
}
.arrow::before{
content: "";
height:50px;
width:80px;
background: #ccc;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
margin: -100%;
display: block;
transform: translateX(-160%) translateY(-50%);
}
<div class="arrow"></div>
Create one rectangle and then add triangle on top with :before pseudo-element and that is it.
.arrow {
width: 36px;
height: 50px;
background: #3F3F3F;
position: relative;
margin: 60px;
}
.arrow:before {
content: '';
border-style: solid;
border-width: 0 40px 40px 40px;
border-color: transparent transparent #3F3F3F transparent;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -100%);
}
<div class="arrow"></div>
To explain and demonstrate:
A CSS arrow is created by coloring 1 border side, and then moving the other 3 sides in towards the middle of the shape as transparent so they don't show but cut the remaining colored side into a triangle. The shorthand for this is TOP RIGHT BOTTOM LEFT. So to make a triangle pointing upwards you use the third property or bottom.
Using pseudo elements (incase you want the arrow added to another element) you need content:'' to "create" the pseudo element. I've set them as display: block so that they are in the flow and interact with eachother (rather than being laid on top of one another).
By giving the rectangle position: relative you can then use left: 30px (half of the triangle width) to position it in the middle of the triangle.
.arrowWrapper:before {
content: '';
display: block;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 0 60px 60px 60px;
border-color: transparent transparent black transparent;
/* border-color: TOP RIGHT BOTTOM LEFT; */
}
.arrowWrapper:after {
content: '';
position: relative;
display: block;
width: 60px;
height: 60px;
background: black;
left: 30px;
}
<div class="arrowWrapper"></div>
Lifted and modified from http://www.cssportal.com/css3-shapes/:
#eq-triangle {
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-bottom: 104px solid blue;
border-left: 60px solid transparent;
border-right: 60px solid transparent;
}
#rectangle {
width: 40px;
height: 80px;
background: blue;
margin-left: 40px;
}
<div id="eq-triangle"></div>
<div id="rectangle"></div>
I found following css code to create rectangle plus right hand side triangle
div{
position: relative;/*it important to set this to relative to be able to use :before in absolute*/
width: 60px;
height: 40px;
background: red
}
div:before{
content: '';
position:absolute;
left: 100%;
top: 0;
border-top: 20px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 20px solid transparent;
border-left: 20px solid red
}
<div>Play</div>
how should I do the same thing, but only with the outline ?
sample image would be like bellow(number 2 box):
Play around with :after positioned over :before to create border.
div{
position: relative;/*it important to set this to relative to be able to use :before in absolute*/
width: 60px;
height: 40px;
background: white;
border: 1px solid red;
}
div:before{
content: '';
position:absolute;
left: 100%;
top: -1px;
border-top: 21px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 21px solid transparent;
border-left: 21px solid red
}
div:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
left: 100%;
top: 0;
margin-right: -2px;
border-top: 20px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 20px solid transparent;
border-left: 20px solid white;
}
<div>Play</div>

Your positioning code was just a little bit off. The best way to position the arrow pseudoelement (thanks to #vals) is to use bottom: 100% along with margin: auto, left: 0, and right: 0. That way your arrow will always stay in the correct position even if you decide to change the arrow's size.
Here is a working live demo:
#bellnews {
position: absolute;
min-width: 140px;
min-height: 100px;
background: #fff;
color: #000;
border: 1px solid #000;
}
#bellnews:before {
content: "";
vertical-align: middle;
margin: auto;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 100%;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-left: 5px solid transparent;
border-right: 5px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 5px solid black;
}
<div id=bellnews>
</div>
JSFiddle Version: https://jsfiddle.net/3huzc74a/3/
Using absolute positioning with left:calc(50% - 5px); will always keep it in the middle no matter the width.
Here's a fiddle
#bellnews {
position:relative;
min-width: 140px;
min-height:100px;
background: #fff;
color: #000;
border:1px solid #000;
display:inline-block;
}
#bellnews:before {
content: "";
position:absolute;
bottom:100%;
width: 0;
height: 0;
left:calc(50% - 5px);
border-left: 5px solid transparent;
border-right: 5px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 5px solid black;
}
<div id=bellnews>
</div>
Try this one with position relative on parent and absolute on child:
#bellnews {
position:relative;
width: 140px;
height:100px;
background: #fff;
color: #000;
border:1px solid #000;
}
#bellnews:before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
vertical-align: middle;
margin-left: 70px;
width: 0;
height: 0;
top: -5px;
border-left: 5px solid transparent;
border-right: 5px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 5px solid black;
}

You need to make :before pseudo element absolute .
Then use top to control the position of the pseudo element.
This is a nice tutorial to understand the basics.
Working code
#bellnews {
position: absolute;
min-width: 140px;
min-height: 100px;
background: #fff;
color: #000;
border: 1px solid #000;
width: 100px
}
#bellnews:before {
content: "";
vertical-align: middle;
margin-left: 70px;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-left: 5px solid transparent;
border-right: 5px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 5px solid black;
position: absolute;
top: -5px;
}
<div id=bellnews>
</div>
If you make the position on the #news div relative, and the triangle absolute, it should work.
Updated your fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/3huzc74a/7/
#bellnews {
position: absolute;
min-width: 140px;
min-height:100px;
background: #fff;
color: #000;
border:1px solid #000;
}
#bellnews:before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
top: -5px;
vertical-align: middle;
margin-left: 70px;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-left: 5px solid transparent;
border-right: 5px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 5px solid black;
}
I wanted to know how to indent text with css without indenting the :before property. I want to show a triangle in the before section then indent the text in just a bit more so the triangle doesn't overlap the text.
If i do a text-indent on the main element, it also indents the :before part too.
.header {
border-bottom: 2px solid red;
color: blue;
position: relative;
}
.header:before {
content: '';
width: 0;
height: 0;
bottom: 0;
position: absolute;
border-right: 20px solid transparent;
border-left: 2px solid red;
border-bottom: 20px solid red;
}
The text-indent works... You just have to tell your pseudo element (since it's absolutelly positioned) to be on left: 0;.
See:
.header {
border-bottom: 2px solid red;
color: blue;
position: relative;
text-indent: 20px;
}
.header:before {
content: '';
width: 0;
height: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
position: absolute;
border-right: 20px solid transparent;
border-left: 2px solid red;
border-bottom: 20px solid red;
}
<div class="header">test</div>
