Examples¶
Basic example¶
Use the scroll-mt-<number>, scroll-mr-<number>, scroll-mb-<number>, and scroll-ml-<number> utilities like scroll-ml-4 and scroll-mt-6 to set the scroll offset around items within a snap container:
<!-- [!code classes:scroll-ml-6] -->
<div class="snap-x ...">
<div class="snap-start scroll-ml-6 ...">
<img src="/img/vacation-01.jpg"/>
</div>
<div class="snap-start scroll-ml-6 ...">
<img src="/img/vacation-02.jpg"/>
</div>
<div class="snap-start scroll-ml-6 ...">
<img src="/img/vacation-03.jpg"/>
</div>
<div class="snap-start scroll-ml-6 ...">
<img src="/img/vacation-04.jpg"/>
</div>
<div class="snap-start scroll-ml-6 ...">
<img src="/img/vacation-05.jpg"/>
</div>
</div>
Using negative values¶
To use a negative scroll margin value, prefix the class name with a dash to convert it to a negative value:
<!-- [!code classes:-scroll-ml-6] -->
<div class="snap-start -scroll-ml-6 ...">
<!-- ... -->
</div>
Using logical properties¶
Use the scroll-ms-<number> and scroll-me-<number> utilities to set the scroll-margin-inline-start and scroll-margin-inline-end logical properties, which map to either the left or right side based on the text direction:
Left-to-right
Right-to-left
<!-- [!code classes:scroll-ms-6] -->
<!-- [!code word:dir="ltr"] -->
<!-- [!code word:dir="rtl"] -->
<div dir="ltr">
<div class="snap-x ...">
<div class="snap-start scroll-ms-6 ...">
<img src="/img/vacation-01.jpg"/>
</div>
<!-- ... -->
</div>
</div>
<div dir="rtl">
<div class="snap-x ...">
<div class="snap-start scroll-ms-6 ...">
<img src="/img/vacation-01.jpg"/>
</div>
<!-- ... -->
</div>
</div>
For more control, you can also use the LTR and RTL modifiers to conditionally apply specific styles depending on the current text direction.
Use the scroll-mbs-<number> and scroll-mbe-<number> utilities to set the scroll-margin-block-start and scroll-margin-block-end logical properties, which map to either the top or bottom side based on the writing mode:
<!-- [!code classes:scroll-mbs-6] -->
<div class="snap-y ...">
<div class="snap-start scroll-mbs-6 ...">
<!-- ... -->
</div>
</div>
