i need to make the icon and the text on the same line and close to each other, i tried usingdisplay: inline-block; but it didn't work, here's my code.
HTML:
<div className="Comment_Icon">
<img src={StudentIcon} alt="StudentIcon" class="Student_Icon"></img>
<div className="Comments">5 Class Comments</div>
</div>
CSS:
.Student_Icon {
height: 1vw;
width: 1vw;
display: inline-block;
}
.IconText {
padding-top: 0.8vw;
font-size: 1.5vw;
}
.Comments {
font-size: 2.5vw;
display: inline-block;
}
Use flex in this case as shown below
.IconText {
padding-top: 0.8vw;
font-size: 1.5vw;
}
.Comments {
font-size: 2.5vw;
display: inline-block;
}
.Comment_Icon {
display: flex;
flex-direction: row;
align-items: center;
}
.Student_Icon {
margin-right: 3px;
}<div class="Comment_Icon">
<img src={StudentIcon} alt="StudentIcon" class="Student_Icon"></img>
<div class="Comments">5 Class Comments</div>
</div>You can achieve this with flexbox styling. Note that I am changing your React structure a bit and also adding a fake image. And did you mean to use 1vw? that means 1% of the viewport width and is pretty small - esp on small screens.
Using and referencing REM units is more reliable ( REM is set in the root element and is usually 16px but can be changed. But the advantage of using rems is that it is a common size that all elements can access.
.Comment_Icon {
display: flex;
align-items: center;
}
.Student_Icon {
height: 1.5rem;
width: 1.5rem;
}
.Comments {
font-size: 1rem;
margin-left: 8px;
}<div class="Comment_Icon">
<img src="https://hipsiti.com/uploads/default-profile.png" alt="StudentIcon" class="Student_Icon"/>
<span class="Comments">5 Class Comments</span>
</div>.Student_Icon {
float: left;
padding-right: 10px;
}
.IconText {
padding-top: 0.8vw;
font-size: 1.5vw;
}
.Comments {
font-size: 2.5vw;
display: inline-block;
}<div className="Comment_Icon">
<img src=https://via.placeholder.com/20 class="Student_Icon"></img>
<div className="Comments">5 Class Comments</div>
</div>I made use of float: left;
So the icon/image comes left and the text next to it.
