Clearfix

Angular Bootstrap 5 Clearfix

Quickly and easily clear floated content within a container by adding a clearfix utility.

Basic example

Easily clear floats by adding .clearfix to the parent element. Can also be used as a mixin.

Use in HTML:

        
            
            <div class="clearfix">...</div>
          
        
    

The mixin source code:

        
            
            @mixin clearfix() {
              &::after {
                display: block;
                clear: both;
                content: "";
              }
            }
          
        
    

Use the mixin in SCSS:

        
            
            .element {
              @include clearfix;
            }
          
        
    

The following example shows how the clearfix can be used. Without the clearfix the wrapping div would not span around the buttons which would cause a broken layout.

        
            
            <div class="bg-info clearfix">
              <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary float-start">
                Example Button floated left
              </button>
              <button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary float-end">
                Example Button floated right
              </button>
            </div>
