There are several helpers in materialize CSS that are used for designing needs such as:
- Alignment
- Hiding/Showing content
- Formatting
1. Alignment: Content can be aligned horizontally or vertically by using the following classes:
-
Vertical Align: It can be easily done by adding the class valign-wrapper to the container holding the items that you want to align.
<div class="valign-wrapper"> <h5>This is vertically aligned</h5> </div>
-
Horizontal Align: These classes are used for horizontally aligning the content: left-align, right-align, center-align.
<div> <h5 class="left-align">This is left aligned</h5> </div> <div> <h5 class="right-align">This is right aligned</h5> </div> <div> <h5 class="center-align">This is center aligned</h5> </div>
-
Quick Float: There are other classes that is used to align the content are left and right.
<div class="left">...</div> <div class="right">...</div>
2. Hiding/Showing content: To hide/show content on specific screen, materialize provides easy to use classes.
Class | Screen Range |
---|---|
hide | Hidden from all devices |
hide-on-small-only | Hidden for Mobile Only |
hide-on-med-only | Hidden for Tablet Only |
hide-on-med-and-down | Hidden for Tablet and Below |
hide-on-med-and-up | Hidden for Tablet and Above |
hide-on-large-only | Hidden for Desktop Only |
show-on-small | Show for Mobile Only |
show-on-medium | Show for Tablet Only |
show-on-large | Show for Desktop Only |
show-on-medium-and-up | Show for Tablet and Above |
show-on-medium-and-down | Show for Tablet and Below |
<div class="hide-on-small-only"> This will be hidden from mobile screen </div>
3. Formatting: These classes helps to format various content. These classes are –
-
Truncation: To truncate long lines of text in an ellipsis, truncate class is added to the tag that contains text.
<h4 class="truncate"> This is an extremely long title that will be truncated </h4>
-
Hover: The hoverable is the hover class that is used to add animation for the box shadow.
<div class="card-panel hoverable"> Hoverable Card Panel </div>
Here is an example in which all of the above classes are used:
<!DOCTYPE html> < html >
< head >
<!--Import Google Icon Font-->
< link href =
rel = "stylesheet" >
<!-- Compiled and minified CSS -->
< link rel = "stylesheet" href =
<!--Let browser know website is
optimized for mobile-->
< meta name = "viewport" content =
"width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
</ head >
< body >
< div class = "class green" >
< br >
< div class = "card-panel " >
< div class = "valign-wrapper" >
< h5 >This is vertically aligned</ h5 >
</ div >
</ div >
< div class = "card-panel" >
< h5 class = "left-align" >
This is left aligned
</ h5 >
</ div >
< div class = "card-panel" >
< h5 class = "right-align" >
This is right aligned
</ h5 >
</ div >
< div class = "card-panel" >
< h5 class = "center-align" >
This is center aligned
</ h5 >
</ div >
< div class = "card-panel" >
< div class = "left" >...</ div >
</ div >
< div class = "card-panel" >
< div class = "right" >...</ div >
</ div >
< div class = "hide-on-small-only" >
Hidden for mobile only</ div >
< div class = "hide-on-med-only " >
Hidden for Tablet Only </ div >
< div class = "hide-on-large-only" >
Hidden for Desktop Only</ div >
< div class = "card-panel" >
< h4 class = "truncate" >

that will be truncated to show
the changes.
</ h4 >
</ div >
