I'm attempting to create a div that has a width and height of 37% of the view width.
I want the div to be centered in the middle so I attempted to take 50% of the view width and subtract the 37% value.
I then want the div to sit 50% outside of the parent div. It's basically a cover photo with a profile image. The bottom position would need to be negative in order to force the business-cover-logo outside the business-view-wrapper and the only way I could think of was multiply by a negative number.
<div class="business-view-cover">
<div class="business-cover-logo"></div>
</div>
.business-view-cover {
position: relative;
height: calc(100vw * 0.5625);
background-size: cover;
background-position: center center;
background-image: url('../images/business-cover-1.png');
.business-cover-logo {
position: absolute;
--width-profile: calc(100vw * 0.37);
--half-width: calc(var(--width-profile) / 2);
--profile-bottom: calc(-1 * var(--half-width));
bottom: calc(var(--profile-bottom) * -1);
left: calc(50vw - var(--width-profile));
width: var(--width-profile);
height: var(--width-profile);
border: 4px solid $e1-background-grey;
border-radius: 1.6rem;
background-size: cover;
background-position: center center;
background-image: url('../images/logo-cover-napa.png');
}
}
Example of it working with fixed values.
.business-view-cover {
position: relative;
height: calc(100vw * 0.5625);
background-size: cover;
background-position: center center;
background-image: url('../images/business-cover-1.png');
.business-cover-logo {
position: absolute;
bottom: -7.65rem;
left: calc(50vw - 7.65rem);
width: 15.3rem;
height: 15.3rem;
border: 4px solid $e1-background-grey;
border-radius: 1.6rem;
background-size: cover;
background-position: center center;
background-image: url('../images/logo-cover-napa.png');
}
}
I edited my answer after understanding what you need: To position your logo, use position: relative
and set the bottom
to a negative value, and in order to center the logo use the left: calc(50% - 100px)
where 100px
are half of your logo size.
HTML
<div class="cover-photo">
<div class="logo">
</div>
</div>
CSS
.cover-photo{
width: 100%;
margin: auto;
border: 1px solid black;
text-align: center;
}
.logo{
background-color: navy;
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
position:relative;
bottom: -100px;
left: calc(50% - 100px);
}
Also, there are no nesting classes in CSS, you should move .business-cover-logo
outside the brackets
