I need to get a speech bubble that looks something like this via CSS:
I do not need to set default height for a box. It must have dynamic height. And if the height is increased, the left arrow must be in the center.
I looked through some examples, but I don't know how to change the height! Here is the code I have:
<style>
.bubble
{
position: relative;
width: 250px;
height: 120px;
padding: 0px;
background: gray;
margin-left:50px;
}
.bubble:after
{
content: "";
position: absolute;
top: 45px;
left: -15px;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 15px 15px 15px 0;
border-color: transparent gray;
display: block;
width: 0;
z-index: 1;
}
</style>
<div class="bubble"></div>
Here is JSBin
Make
top: 40%;
bottom: 50%;
in your .bubble:after in CSS script
You have to check it by changing the .bubble height

I would like to integrate the W3-Tooltip in my project. It works fine on normal screens, but fails on mobile phones. The example is here: https://www.w3schools.com/css/tryit.asp?filename=trycss_tooltip_arrow_left
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<style>
.tooltip {
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
border-bottom: 1px dotted black;
}
.tooltip .tooltiptext {
visibility: hidden;
width: 120px;
background-color: black;
color: #fff;
text-align: center;
border-radius: 6px;
padding: 5px 0;
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
top: -5px;
left: 110%;
}
.tooltip .tooltiptext::after {
content: "";
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
right: 100%;
margin-top: -5px;
border-width: 5px;
border-style: solid;
border-color: transparent black transparent transparent;
}
.tooltip:hover .tooltiptext {
visibility: visible;
}
</style>
<body style="text-align:center;">
<h2>Right Tooltip w/ Left Arrow</h2>
<div class="tooltip">Hover over me
<span class="tooltiptext">Tooltip text</span>
</div>
</body>
</html>
When making the screen smaller, the tooltip will stay where it is and a scroll bar will appear.
I would like to have a css-solution, where the tooltip will be positioned differently on small screens. My idea is to have
left and width: relative to screen
top: relative to parent object (the underlined keyword)
Then the tooltip could fill the screen from left to right border but stay under the keyword.
Does anyone have an idea how to solve this positioning issue? I would prefer a solution without javascript, but if it is not possible without, then it would also be OK.
Use a media query to position the tooltip differently on a smaller screen:
#media only screen and (max-width: 600px) { /* adjust max-width for the screen-size you want */
.tooltip .tooltiptext {
width: 120px;
top: 100%;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -60px;
margin-top: 10px; /* adjust this if needed */
}
.tooltip .tooltiptext::after {
top: 0%;
left: 50%;
margin-top: -9px;
margin-left: -5px;
border-width: 5px;
border-color: transparent transparent black transparent;
}
}
Does anyone have any pointers on how I can achieve the following 2 effects (red color) using pure CSS?
I am not asking for entire code but if anybody can guide me in proper direction, that would really be great.
Thanks in advance.
For second effect you should create for image's container two pseudo-elements :before and :after with border-radius set to desired value. Element :before you should position to left bottom side of container and the element :after you should position to right bottom side. You should also specify widths for each pseudo-element (for example: 50% and 50%, 60% and 40% etc.).
Code for the second effect:
.image {
position: relative;
width: 350px;
}
img {
display: block;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
.image:before {
content: '';
display: inline-block;
background: rgba(255, 0, 0, .5);
width: 30%;
height: 120px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
border-top-right-radius: 15px;
}
.image:after {
content: '';
display: inline-block;
background: rgba(255, 0, 0, .5);
width: 70%;
height: 120px;
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
border-top-left-radius: 15px;
}
<div class="image">
<img src="http://placehold.it/350x350">
</div>
OK, here is a suggestion for the proper direction.
The lower red panel looks to me like two adjoining rectangles. You need to set the widths appropriately, and then for each rectangle round off one corner using border-radius: a b c d.
The effect looks to me like two of effect number 2. The red one, and then the same in white, possibly with a z-index to make sure that it (partly) covers the other one.
I trust you already know how to make the red translucent, either by using opacity or setting the colour using rgba.
I hope that helps.
You have to use the pseudo elements :after & :before to achieve the bulge in the otherwise straight div.
You may try something like this:
div {
height: 30px;
width: 200px;
background-color: red;
position: relative;
}
div:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
width: 0px;
height: 0;
border-left: 10px solid transparent;
border-right: 10px solid transparent;
border-top: 10px solid #fff;
margin: auto;
}
div:before {
content: '';
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: -8px;
width: 0px;
height: 0;
border-left: 12px solid transparent;
border-right: 12px solid transparent;
border-top: 10px solid red;
margin: auto;
}
<div></div>
Since you didn't provide a fiddle so use below solution as a guide. CSS will produces curved edges that you join together to produce desired results.
div.arrow-curved {
width: 120px;
height: 80px;
background: red;
position: relative;
-moz-border-radius: 10px;
-webkit-border-radius: 10px;
border-radius: 10px;
}
div.arrow-curved:before {
content:"";
position: absolute;
right: 100%;
top: 26px;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-top: 13px solid transparent;
border-right: 26px solid red;
border-bottom: 13px solid transparent;
}

I'm trying to put a scrollbar inside my div tag yet when I do, the arrow on the side of it disappears. Is there are way to fix this?
Live preview here.
The bubble is supposed to look like this, but with a scrollbar in it of course.
.bubble {
background-color: #ffffff;
border: 1px solid #000000;
border-radius: 8px;
width: 240px;
height: 250px;
padding: 10px;
margin: 100px auto 100px auto;
position: relative;
overflow: scroll;
}
.bubble:before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
left: -25px;
top: 24px;
bottom: auto;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 12px 24px 12px 0px;
border-color: transparent #000000;
}
.bubble:after {
content: "";
position: absolute;
left: -23px;
top: 25px;
bottom: auto;
border-style: solid;
border-width: 11px 23px 11px 0px;
border-color: transparent #ffffff;
display: block;
width : 0px;
}
Put the below content div inside bubble div.
Put content of bubble div inside the below div and add the style..
<div class="content"></div>
Inside style :
.content{
height:70px;
overflow-y:scroll;}
HOPE IT HELPS
Try putting the content of the bubble inside a div, and put overflow: scroll on that child div, rather than on the entire bubble.
I am trying to create a custom shape in CSS3 but I am having problems with the position of the object at certain screen resolutions.
What I am trying to make:
CSS:
.foobar {
position: relative;
width: 100px;
background-color: #666733;
color: #ffffff;
border: none;
padding: 5px 0;
margin-left: 10px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
}
.foobar:before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
width: 110px;
height: 22px;
background: #666733;
padding-left: 0;
margin-left: -32px;
-moz-border-radius: 100px / 50px;
-webkit-border-radius: 100px / 50px;
border-radius: 100px / 50px;
z-index: -100;
}
The issue I am having is with the foobar:before at different screen resolutions looks off:
iPhone:
iPad:
Desktop:
How can I properly code the shape with CSS so that it will work with all screen sizes? I have attempted to create #media with an adjustment of margin-left but I was curious to know if there is a better way?
When you use position: absolute;, it's better to use top, left, right and bottom position properties. You will have consistency that way irrespective of the device. Look at the DEMO and try for yourself.
HTML
<div class="foobar"></div>
CSS
.foobar {
position: relative;
width: 150px;
height: 50px;
background: #666733;
}
.foobar:before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
top: 13px;
left: -15px;
width: 180px;
height: 24px;
background: #666733;
border-radius: 15px;
}
I'm stuck with CSS pseudo-elements :before and :after when I was trying to stylize button's background. The problem is this: when I'm using only positive z-indices to place span itself and its pseudo-elements in right order, :before and :after are always overlapping the element. When I'm using negative z-indices, it's all right, but I don't want to change other underlying elements' z-indices just to make the button working.
So that's the problem and that's the goal to be achieved except the negative z-indices.
Problem code:
.button {
display: inline-block;
z-index:3;
position: relative;
left: 25px;
top: 25px;
height: 60px;
padding-left: 20px;
padding-right: 20px;
background: rgb(96,96,100);
border: 1px solid #202020;
color: #dddddd;
}
.button:before {
content: "";
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
z-index: 2;
position: absolute;
background: rgba(85,85,90, .7);
padding: 10px;
left: -10px;
top: -10px;
}
.button:after {
content: "";
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
z-index: 1;
position: absolute;
background: rgba(85,85,90, .4);
padding: 20px;
left: -20px;
top: -20px;
}
go for borders ! :)
http://jsfiddle.net/RwGV9/1/
basically
border:solid 10px rgba(85,85,90, .7);
left: -10px;
top: -10px;
and same thing for the other one with the right left, top and padding !
if you don't mind putting attributes in your html, you could do like that :
http://jsfiddle.net/RwGV9/
in the HTML :
<span data-text='button !' class="button">button</span>
and in the CSS :
.button:before {
content: attr(data-text);
Basically put the text in the highest layer using button using content: attr(); and make you text disappear in the deepest one (bg color = type color is not very elegant but it keeps the text of the button selectable for the user !)
http://jsfiddle.net/D8gDK/
.button {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
left: 25px;
top: 25px;
width: 100px;
height: 60px;
padding-left: 20px;
padding-right: 20px;
background: rgb(96,96,100);
border: 1px solid #202020;
color: #dddddd;
}
.button:before {
content: "";
display: block;
width: 140px;
height: 60px;
position: relative;
background: rgba(85,85,90, .7);
border: 10px solid rgba(85,85,90, .4);
padding: 10px;
left: -40px;
top: -20px;
}
I got rid of the second pseudo element and put the before behind the button.
Might need some work with the colors...
Works only if you know the width of the button, though
