Cancel responsiveness?

Hi guys :grin:

I have a section with many images (I’m going to use parallax), when I shrink the screen all the images are coming to the center and it looks bad, instead I want for it to simply be cut by the screen (cancel responsiveness?)

Thanks for your help!

Do this. Though it will look kinda empty on mobiles, and you will need to modify images’ positions for different breakpoints anyway.

Thanks for your help @dram, it works but now on smaller screen there’s an horizontal scroll…
Do you have any tip for that? :slight_smile:

Yes. Make sure your parent element for the wireframes has overflow:hidden set

Yea it’s already on, I think it’s because I put 1600px for the section…

No, it is not on because you don’t have a parent to put overflow:hidden on, sorry didn’t notice your sections are without parents.

Just put a div inside your wireframes sections, style it like your wireframes section currently is and remove the min width from the wireframes itself

Hi @dram probably I’ve missed something, I put a div inside the section and now the images are coming to the center as before :sweat_smile:

But apply to this new div inside a section. Section itself (wireframes) should not have this code after all.

edit: and don’t forget to set overflow:hidden on the section!

Did what you said, still in small screens the images are coming to the center…

Right. Give your div inside the wireframes section position: absolute and height: 100%. This should do it.

Wow! it worked:open_mouth:
Thanks for you help and patient :relaxed: but now I wondering why it worked… could you explain it to me? Why did I put a div inside the section? why 1600px? and why now the images are not moving?
I really appreciate your help.

That’s the spirit! Knowing whys is the best way!

So anyway, the method to keep things not scale down (as you wanted it to be - just cut from one side or another) is to give them some size that will not decrease (hence we put in 1600px - but that could be any number at which you think your element looks the way it should - at the same time you set minimum width of 100% to ensure that this element is always at least the size of a browser width preventing it from being too narrow on wider screens).

Now if this element is larger that our browser window width it will create a horizontal scrollbar. To avoid this we usually set overflow: hidden on the parent element.

But the element you needed to keep larger that browser width was a top level section so there was no parent to give it the overflow: hidden property (aside from the body, but that would be a bad idea). That is why we had to create yet another div inside, style it to keep it wide and take 100% of its container, and then gave the overflow setting to its parent (that’s our section!).

Hmmm, ok I think I got it!
