Slot Details

alignCross

Str alignCross := "center"

Define child alignment along cross axis:

  • "flex-start": items are aligned to top of cross axis
  • "flex-end": items are aligned to bottom of cross axis
  • "center": items are centered along cross axis
  • "baseline": items are aligned so baselines match
  • "stretch": stretch items to fill container

alignLines

Str alignLines := "stretch"

Define how multiple lines of content are aligned when extra space exists in the cross axis:

  • "flex-start": lines are packed to top of cross axis
  • "flex-end": lines are packed to bottom of cross axis
  • "center": lines are packed along center of cross axis
  • "space-around": extra space is evenly divided between lines
  • "space-between": extra space is evenly divided around lines
  • "stretch": stretch lines to fill container

This value has no effect for single line layouts.

Str alignMain := "flex-start"

Define child alignment along main axis:

  • "flex-start": items are packed toward start of line
  • "flex-end": items are packed toward end of line
  • "center": items are centered along the line
  • "space-between": extra space is evenly distributed between items
  • "space-around": extra space is evenly distributed around items

  • "row": layout children left to right
  • "column": layout childrent top to bottom
