I have the following html
<a class=logo></a>
I want to replace it with my logo. But I want the logo to take up 100% of the vertical room, and an amount of horizontal room that will leave the image proportional
I could try to do
.logo {
background-image: 'logo.svg';
background-size: auto 100%;
}
except I would still need to set a height and width in order for it to take up space.
I could try to do
.logo:before {
content: url('logo.svg');
}
except the only way to set the height and width of the image is with
zoom: X%
or
transform: scale(50%);
and neither of these will react to changing heights
Is there any other way I'm missing?
Edit: fiddle - how can I get the width correct here?
If you're wanting a proportional box with 100% width and a height that matches the aspect ratio of the background-image, set the vertical padding to a percentage that matches the vertical ratio.
i.e. if your logo is a 2:1 rectangle, set your width to 100% and your padding to 25% 0 and your tag will stay proportionally sized (you'll need to set it to display: block;). Then background-size: 100% auto (or the other way around) should work because the background image's aspect ratio is the same as its container.

I have a div with three images (in varying aspect ratios) in it. Lets say image1 is 16:9, image2 is 4:3, and image3 is 1:1.
I want all images to have the same height, so I set their height to 100% and their width to auto.
Now I want to scale the whole div up so that it takes 100% of the container, or in my case 100vw.
The goal is that the height of the div scales up accordingly, so that the images in the div scale up too, so that in the end I have a row of 3 images that take up 100vw and all have the same height.
The problem is that I can't get this to work. When I give the div a fixed height, the images scale up properly, but I want it the other way around, so that the height of the div is flexible and the height of the images gets scaled up until the whole row fills 100% of the container of the div.
Can someone help?`
What I have:
.gallerygroup3 {
height: 500px; /* <-- Works widht a fixed height, but not with 100% or anything else */
width: 100vw;
}
#gallery img {
width: auto;
height: 100%;
}
Try changing the width : auto; in #gallery img to width : 33.33vw (since there are 3 images), then try changing the div's height, and it should work. Hope this helps! :D

The biggest problem is that you have a dynamic column width and a fixed height on your image containers (with background-size set to 100% 100%). This results in deformed images. You say you want to change that on hover. To do so, you first need to reset the height of this container:
.uc_animated_border_banner:hover .uc_animated_border_bg {height: auto!important;}
Next you should use the padding trick to set the (now dynamic) height equal to the aspect ratio. The aspect ratio of the image is 450px/350px = 1.29. This equals to 129% padding-bottom. Correct this for the line-height of the element that actually takes up verticale space in the box (the h2, with a height of 30px) and you end up with 129% - 30px for the padding-bottom. Split this for equal padding top and bottom, and you end up with 64.5% - 15px padding on both top and bottom of the h2 element. This results in a box with an exact aspect ratio of 1.29 (as long as the h2 fits on a single line).
.uc_animated_border_banner:hover .uc_animated_border_banner .uc_content_box h2 {
padding-top: calc(64.5% - 15px)!important;
padding-bottom: calc(64.5% - 15px)!important;
}
TIP: Use position: absolute on the h2 for a solution without the 15px/30px and single-line constraint.
Although this works I would chose for a more simple solution. Find the inline CSS statement at line 214:
.uc_animated_border_bg {background-size: 100% 100%!important;}
... and replace it with:
.uc_animated_border_bg {background-size: cover!important;}
I think the result looks better and the solution is much simpler. This alternative solution works for any image (irrespective of their aspect ratio). The only down-side is that an unknown amount of the image is invisible/cut off.
So I've been trying to create a simple page where the image takes up 100% of the height, with a small sidebar. I want the image to resize itself when I resize the window. When I resize the window vertically, the width stays the same, which is not what I want (I want it to retain it's aspect ratio whatever the window size). I really dislike this distortion, but am unsure of how to fix it. Any idea what I'm doing wrong?
.big-image {
max-height: 100%;
min-width: 20%;
margin: auto;
overflow: hidden;
}
set display: block or display: inline-block to your .big-image class, in order for the max-height and min-width property to work. These properties, along with height, width, min-height, max-width, padding-top, padding-bottom, margin-top and margin-bottom doesn't work on inline elements.
You can set either the height or width of an image to auto and control the other property with a set size whether that be percentage or px. That auto should maintain the aspect ratio of the image while you get to control the size of the image with the other property.
max-width:100% and height:auto will work. When applying max-width:1000%; it will take the width of the container and height will be proportionately varied.
The div in which I have a background image is of unknown size. It can be 16px high, it can be 1600px, and anything in between. There's a background-image in there that's roughly 440px wide and 250px high.
When the div is higher than 250px, the background image doesn't scale. That's desired behaviour. So far so good.
If the div gets under 250px in height, the background-image is clipped. That's unwanted: I want it to scale to the div's smaller height.
How do I use css (or, if not possible, js) to have a background-image scale down when it doesn't fit its div, but never scale up when the div is bigger than itself? Essentially, I want to use background-size: contain;, but with a max set to the image's height.
I tried all kinds of cover and contains, but none have the desired effect.
This question does not help either, for I cannot set a max-height on the div. It contains content added by the site's editor. If that's a lot, all of it must show.
Here's a fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Bakabaka/2zetkrg0/
Is simply inserting an img inside the element you wanted to give a background to an option?
You can use max-width:100%; max-height:100%; on the image, so it will not exceed the container dimensions, but will still retain its aspect ratio and won't grow larger than its original size. Next, you could position the image absolutely and give it z-index:-1 so it'll be behind all the content and won't be affected by it. Finally, just give the image top:50%; left:50%; transform:translate(50%,50%); if you want it centered within its container.
Here's a demo: https://jsfiddle.net/ilpo/9dnqd6bc/1/
You could even set min-width and min-height, if you wanted to have a minimum size for the background.
Try this, hope it'll work :)
container{
background-image: url("/assets/pic.jpg");
background-size: cover;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
max-height:250px;
}
I am assuming I will need Javascript for this, but perhaps there is a CSS trick I'm not aware of.
I have a web page based on a square background image. Ideally, the user would always set the browser as a square, but I know that won't happen.
Because the image is square, if the image is set to fill the browser at 100%, the width is always the same as where the "bottom" of the page should be.
Thus, to position an element dynamically horizontally (so the page can be resized but still hold it's structure), the top position of said element is a percentage of the width.
In other words, if I have a horizontal bar that should ALWAYS be positioned 85% from the top of the image, the top position can be defined as 85% of width (top:85% [of browser width]). If you simply define the top of the horizontal bar as 85% (top:85%;), the horizontal bar's position will vary with the height of the browser window (whereas if you set it as 85% of the width it would be exactly where I want it).
As mentioned before, this is likely an easy thing to do with Javascript, but I don't know Javascript. I assume there isn't a function in CSS that will allow positioning by calculating a percentage of width, but that would be ideal.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Unfortunately I'm a new user and the interface won't allow me to post a photo.
The page is square (a large, square image). There is a horizontal navbar who's top should be positioned 85% from the top of the image (it would be defined as (top:85%;) if the browser were opened to the exact same size and dimension (square) of the image).
However, if someone drags the bottom of their browser down (to make a tall rectangle), 85% will not be where I want it over the image. HOWEVER, 85% of the width will ALWAYS be in the exact right spot (because the image always fills 100% of the width). So, if I could define the horizontal position as 85% of the browser width (instead of height), the navbar would be exactly where I want it, no matter what dimensions the browser is open to. Thanks in advance for any possible solutions.
==================
Doing more research, it would seem that the answer might lie in Jquery (using position or maybe outerWidth or possibly something like var winWidth = $(window).width();), but I have no experience with Java/Javascript. Any help out there? Again, I want to set the position of the div holding the horizontal navigation bar to 85% of the width of the browser window. Thanks!

<div class="box">
<img src="http://renboy.com/images/squareWeb.jpg">
<div class="bar"></div>
</div>
CSS:
.box {
position: absolute;
z-index: -1;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
}
.box img {
display: block;
width: 100%;
}
.box .bar {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 10%;
top: 85%;
}
WTF happens: .box is set to 100% width. The image inside is also set to 100%. Images in non-crappy browsers keep their aspect ratio when they are resized by only one side. .box wants contain the image entirely, so its height will be set to image's height. Because .box is positioned absolute, you can put the .bar inside the .box and position it vertically as you wish, because .box now has a well-defined height.
