First-child full-width in Flexbox
How can I set the first-child of flexbox in full-width and all of the other childs set to flex:1
(for split space)?
Like this:
Solution 1:
You can set the :first-child
to a width of 100%
, and the rest of the childs :not(:first-child)
to flex: 1
.
To put them on multiple lines, use flex-wrap: wrap
on the container:
.container {
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
flex-wrap: wrap;
background: #e2eaf4;
padding: 10px;
}
.child {
display: inline-block;
font-family: "Open Sans", Arial;
font-size: 20px;
color: #FFF;
text-align: center;
background: #3794fe;
border-radius: 6px;
padding: 20px;
margin: 12px;
}
.child:first-child {
width: 100%;
}
.child:not(:first-child) {
flex: 1;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="child">Child</div>
<div class="child">Child</div>
<div class="child">Child</div>
</div>
Solution 2:
Add width: 100%;
for your first item. And flex: 1;
for others.
.flex {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.flex-item:not(:first-child) {
flex: 1;
}
.flex-item:nth-child(1) {
width: 100%;
}
/* Styles just for demo */
.flex-item {
background-color: #3794fe;
margin: 10px;
color: #fff;
padding: 20px;
border-radius: 5px;
}
<div class="flex">
<div class="flex-item">
Child
</div>
<div class="flex-item">
Child
</div>
<div class="flex-item">
Child
</div>
</div>
Solution 3:
Another solution which utilises the flex-basis
option (the third value when using this format flex: 1 1 100%
).
MDN link for flex-basis
.flexContainer {
display: flex;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}
.item:first-child {
flex: 1 1 100%;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
.item {
flex: 1 1 40%;
height: 50px;
background-color: red;
margin: 0 20px;
}
<div class="flexContainer">
<div class="item"></div>
<div class="item"></div>
<div class="item"></div>
</div>
