Fill remaining height with Bootstrap - css

I have a web page. My web page uses Bootstrap version 3. Currently, it looks something like this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-4">
Stuff here
</div>
<div class="col-lg-8">
Other stuff here
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-12">
<div id="fillAvailableSpace">
[Main content goes here]
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-6">
Other text goes here
</div>
<div class="col-lg-6 pull-right">
Some text goes here
</div>
</div>
I need the div with the id "fillAvailableSpace" to fill the available height of the screen with the exception of the size of the first row and the last row. How do I fill the remaining available height of a page with Bootstrap?

Try something like below:
Element-name {
display: inline-flex;
height: 100%;
}

Scrollable Card bootstrap

I am using bootstrap 4. I have 3 columns in a single row. One of the columns contains a list and the other two do not. I want only the column with the list to be scrollable but not the entire container, which means that the scrollbar muss appear only within that column.
I would appreciate any help.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="card">...
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="card">...
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="card">...
</div>
You could do something like this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="card">...</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-4 scroll">
<div class="card">...</div>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-4">
<div class="card">...</div>
</div>
</div>
then in your css:
.scroll {
max-height: 100px;
overflow-y: auto;
}

Bootstrap Single Page Full Screen Layout Responsive Height

I am trying to make a single page full screen layout using Bootstrap 3 where the height of the main body is responsive.
The page is going to be displayed in Kiosk mode displaying 3 panels which display different messages, but as the site is going to be displayed on multiple screens of different sizes I am wanting to get the main to be responsive in height.
https://jsfiddle.net/gokcLvtv/7/
<div class="container">
<div class="row header">
<div class="col-xs-6">
Title
</div>
<div class="col-xs-6 text-right">
LOGO
</div>
</div><!-- Header-->
<div class="row main">
<div class="col-xs-8">
<div class="well">Panel One</div>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-4">
<div class="well">Panel Two</div>
<div class="well">Panel Three</div>
</div>
</div><!--main-->
<div class="row footer">
<div class="col-xs-12">© Copyright 2016</div>
</div><!--footer-->
</div><!--container-->
As you can see I have had to specify a height of the main content to get the cols to be 100% and then the .wells inside the column. But I am wanting this to be 100%.
You can use the vw value for horizontal and vertical resizing.
For example
HTML
<div class="main">
<div class="well">
Panel one
</div>
</div>
CSS
.main {
border: 1px solid red;
height: 75vw;
}
.well {
width: 30vw;
height: 30vw;
margin: 1vw;
}
It's easy to translate from px to vw. Every 1 vw is 10 pixels.
Thanks for your help with the vw ... I have managed to achieve this using vh for the height..
I have created an example for anyone who would like to use this in the future - here
Using the same layout
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-12">
<div class="well">Header</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- main -->
<div class="row">
<div class="col-xs-8 main">
<div class="well">
Main Panel
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-4 side-bar">
<div class="well">
Side Panel One
</div>
<div class="well">
Side Panel One
</div>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Footer-->
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-12">
<div class="well">Hello</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
You will just have to play around with the heights to get it to the screensize that works for you.

Add gap between two Divs

I have a screen split in two, using two columns.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 well">
Left Box
</div>
<div class="col-md-6 well">
Right
</div>
</div>
I need a small (approx 10px) gap between the two columns.
http://www.bootply.com/vaOb1WdR5I
Can this be done?
Both boxes would need to reduce by 5 pix (in the above example), as I need the total width to remain.
Edit: Some ideas nearly work, but I am getting an extra Well that I don't want. With this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
#Html.Action("ShowDuePayments", "Transaction")
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
#Html.Action("ShowRecentTransactions", "Transaction")
</div>
</div>
I get this:
The 'under' well div shouldn't be visible.
A couple of points:
You shouldn't add extra classes to the Bootstrap columns (that's not a hard and fast rule, but a good recommendation)
You are missing the container wrap.
Make changes using those rules and it looks like this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/css/bootstrap.min.css">
<script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.2.0/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script>
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="well">Left Top Box</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-12">
<div class="well">Left Bottom Box</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<div class="well">Right Box</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
How about this?
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6" style='padding-right:5px'>
<div class='well'>
Left Box
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6" style='padding-left:5px'>
<div class='well'>
Right
</div>
</div>
</div>
http://www.bootply.com/Ogrte6IQzw
If you remove the inline styling, you will have the natural spacing provided by bootstrap, which is 15px padding.
You can change the class of col-md-6 and add width:49%, and to the 2nd div add pull-right class like:
HTML:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 well">
Left Box
</div>
<div class="col-md-6 well pull-right">
Right
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.col-md-6{
width:49%;
}
You can also try to add padding to the two div tags ie:
.col-md-6{
padding:5px;
}
This would add a bit of padding to all the sides - unless you use padding-left & padding-right and assign different class names to the divs - depending on how you want your code to be layed out.
You could also use an additional class so you only modify special column-6 elements and not all on your site. This example also uses percentage based widths as Flopet17s. You could tweak the percentage number to better fit your desired gap width.
.withgap {
width: 49%;
margin-right:1%;
}
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-6 well withgap">
Left Box
</div>
<div class="col-md-6 well">
Right
</div>
</div>

Make column fixed position in bootstrap

Using Bootstrap, I have a grid column class="col-lg-3" that I want to place it in position:fixed while the other .col-lg-9 is normal position (scroll-able through the page).
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
Just the same way like the left column in LifeHacker.com
You will see that the left part is fixed however I scroll though the page.
I use bootstrap v3.1.1
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
<div class="affix">
fixed position
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal data enter code here
</div>
</div>
iterating over Ihab's answer, just using position:fixed and bootstraps col-offset you don't need to be specific on the width.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3" style="position:fixed">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9 col-lg-offset-3">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
Following the solution here http://jsfiddle.net/dRbe4/,
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3 fixed">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9 scrollit">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
I modified some css to work just perfect:
.fixed {
position: fixed;
width: 25%;
}
.scrollit {
float: left;
width: 71%
}
Thanks #Lowkase for sharing the solution.
in Bootstrap 3 class="affix" works, but in Bootstrap 4 it does not.
I solved this problem in Bootstrap 4 with class="sticky-top"
(using position: fixed in CSS has its own problems)
code will be something like this:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
<div class="sticky-top">
Fixed content
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
Updated for Bootstrap 4
Bootstrap 4 now includes a position-fixed class for this purpose so there is no need for additional CSS...
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
<div class="position-fixed">
Fixed content
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
</div>

Bootstrap 5
The solution is very similar to v4, but you can use responsive variations with .sticky-*-top classes.
<div class="row">
<div class="col-lg-3">
<div class="sticky-md-top">
Fixed content
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
Docs: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/5.0/helpers/position/#responsive-sticky-top
Use this, works for me and solve problems with small screen.
<div class="row">
<!-- (fixed content) JUST VISIBLE IN LG SCREEN -->
<div class="col-lg-3 device-lg visible-lg">
<div class="affix">
fixed position
</div>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
<!-- (fixed content) JUST VISIBLE IN NO LG SCREEN -->
<div class="device-sm visible-sm device-xs visible-xs device-md visible-md ">
<div>
NO fixed position
</div>
</div>
Normal data enter code here
</div>
</div>
With bootstrap 4 just use col-auto
<div class="container-fluid">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-sm-auto">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-sm">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
</div>
If you really want to do it that way, you can't do it in "col- *", because it's going to overlap each other, you should do it in the parent class "row", but depending on what you're doing, you might have a problem with the browser scroll that will be "cut" from the screen, however, is simple to solve, just control the column width and everything will be fine.
<div class="row fixed-top h-100">
<div class="col-lg-3">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9 overflow-auto h-100">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
Use .col instead of col-lg-3 :
<div class="row">
<div class="col">
Fixed content
</div>
<div class="col-lg-9">
Normal scrollable content
</div>
</div>
