Issue
As you can see in the snippet below, the dots under foo-wrapper do not follow the vertical alignment of the text labels under bar-wrapper. But I was expecting this, as per the :nth-child(i) rules.
How can I make the dots, which are the children of a different container which is subsequently a child of a horizontal flexbox (the parent-wrapper), follow the vertical alignment of the children from the other container?
Do I have to renounce flexbox altogether and use something like the grid layout?
<!DOCTYPE html>
<head>
<style>
.parent-wrapper {
align-items: stretch;
display: flex;
flex-flow: row nowrap;
height: 256px;
width: 100%;
}
.foo-wrapper {
background-color: orange;
margin: 1.5rem;
width: 2px;
}
.dot {
background-color: #ebf0ff;
border-radius: 0.5rem;
height: 1rem;
width: 1rem;
}
.foo-wrapper div:nth-child(1) {
margin-top: 1rem;
}
.foo-wrapper div:nth-child(2) {
margin-top: 1rem;
}
.foo-wrapper div:nth-child(3) {
margin-top: 1rem;
}
.bar-wrapper {
border: 1px solid green;
display: flex;
flex-flow: column nowrap;
margin: 1.5rem;
flex-grow: 1;
}
.bar-wrapper div:nth-child(1) {
margin-top: 1rem;
}
.bar-wrapper div:nth-child(2) {
margin-top: 2rem;
}
.bar-wrapper div:nth-child(3) {
margin-top: 4rem;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="parent-wrapper">
<div class="foo-wrapper">
<div class="dot"></div>
<div class="dot"></div>
<div class="dot"></div>
</div>
<div class="bar-wrapper">
<div>Lorem</div>
<div>ipsum</div>
<div>dolores</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>Solution
I find no easy way of doing this, apart from measuring each bar-wrapper child and assigning a height dynamically (js). The most feasible solution right now seems to be restructuring your layout.
Case 1: Mix the bar-wrapper content and foo-wrapper content into a single div.
.wrapper{
display: flex;
align-items: flex-start;
}
...
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="dot"/>
<div class="content">
<p>text</p>
</div>
<div>
Case 2: If you want this exact design, keep the line from the left side separate (either as a simple <div/> or as a border-left of the parent container and add the dot as a pseudo-element e.g.
.content::before{
position: absolute;
content:"";
height: 14px;
width: 14px;
border-radius: 7px;
background: #000000;
margin-left: -18px;
}
.content{
position: relative;
padding-left: 18px;
}
The padding and margin are optional, depending on your layout.
