CSS – Justify Self


CSS – justify-self Property



”;


CSS justify-self property provides a default alignment along the relevant axis for each box by setting the default justify-self for all box items.


Possible Values

  • auto − The value is based on the justify-items property of the parent box, except when the box lacks a parent or is absolutely positioned, where it defaults to ”auto” representing normal.

  • normal − This keyword”s effect is determined on the layout mode:

    • The keyword is the same as start in block-level layouts.

    • In absolute positioning, the keyword acts as a ”start” for replaced boxes and a ”stretch” for other absolute-positioned boxes.

    • This keyword is meaningless in table cell layouts because its property is disregarded.

    • This keyword is meaningless in flexbox layouts because its property is disregarded.

    • For grid items, this keyword behaves as a stretch, except for boxes with an aspect ratio or intrinsic sizes, where it functions like a start.

  • start − Aligns the items at the start edge of the alignment container in the corresponding axis.

  • end − Aligns the items at the end edge of the alignment container in the corresponding axis.

  • center − Aligns the items at the centre of the alignment container.

  • flex-start − This value is considered as start by items that are not children of a flex container.

  • flex-end − This value is considered as end by items that are not children of a flex container.

  • self-start − The items are aligned to the start edge of the alignment container in the appropriate axis.

  • self-end − The items are aligned to the end edge of the alignment container in the appropriate axis.

  • left − The items are aligned to the left edge of the alignment container. This value acts like start if the property”s axis is not parallel to the inline axis.

  • right − The items are aligned to the right edge of the alignment container in the appropriate axis. This value acts like start if the property”s axis is not parallel to the inline axis.

  • baseline, first baseline, last baseline − Defines alignment with the first or last baseline of a box in its baseline-sharing group, aligns the box”s first or last baseline set with the appropriate baseline, with start as the fallback for the first baseline and end for the last baseline.

  • stretch − When the aggregate size of the items is less than the alignment container, auto-sized items are evenly enlarged, according to max-height/max-width limitations, the combined size fills the alignment container.

  • safe − Aligns the items as if the alignment mode were started if its size overflows the alignment container.

  • unsafe − The specified alignment value is honored regardless of the relative sizes of the item and alignment container.

Block-level boxes, absolutely-positioned boxes, and grid items.
