Table-like behavior

Add table behavior to any div by using these helper classes. These classes will come handy when you want to vertically align any content like in native tables.

example :

I'm top aligned just like in a table-cell
I'm middle aligned just like in a table-cell
<div class="container-sm-height bg-master-lighter" style="height:200px">
    <div style="height:50px" class="row row-sm-height b-b b-grey">
        <div class="col-sm-12 col-sm-height col-top ">
            <span class="hint-text">I'm top aligned just like in a table-cell</span>
        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="row row-sm-height ">
        <div class="col-sm-12 col-sm-height col-middle ">
            <span class="hint-text">I'm middle aligned just like in a table-cell</span>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

The table created in the above example is only activated for resolutions ≥768px. Hence the prefix *-sm-*. You can replace *-sm-* with any other breakpoint prefix defined in Bootstrap to restrict the table-like behavior to a particular resolution (ex: 'xs','md','lg')

You can also append col-middle, col-top or col-bottom to col-*-height to vertically align the content

It is also possible to mix these classes together with Bootstrap's row and col-*-* classes without any conflict

Elements that resize maintaining aspect ratio

Make the height of any element auto-adjust depending on its width while constraining to a given aspect ratio.

example :

1x2

2x3

1x1

3x2

2x1

<div class="row">
    <div class="col-sm-3">
        <div class="ar-1-2">
            <div class="bg-master-light padding-20">
                <h3>1x2</h3>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="col-sm-3">
        <div class="ar-2-3">
            <div class="bg-master-light padding-20">
                <h3>2x3</h3>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="col-sm-3">
        <div class="ar-1-1">
            <div class="bg-master-light padding-20">
                <h3>1x1</h3>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="col-sm-3">
        <div class="ar-3-2">
            <div class="bg-master-light padding-20">
                <h3>3x2</h3>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>

    <div class="col-sm-3 m-t-20">
        <div class="ar-2-1">
            <div class="bg-master-light padding-20">
                <h3>2x1</h3>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

Absolute positioning

Makes elements to have position:absolute. Add .relative to the parent of the element that you want to be absolute to have relative positioning

example :

Top-left
Bottom-left
Top-right
Bottom-right
<div class="relative" style="height:300px">
    <!-- Equivalent to "pull-up" -->
    <div class="top-left bg-master-light text-center padding-20">Top-left</div>
    <!-- Equivalent to "pull-bottom" -->
    <div class="bottom-left bg-master-light text-center padding-20">Bottom-left</div>
    <div class="top-right bg-master-light text-center padding-20">Top-right</div>
    <div class="bottom-right bg-master-light text-center padding-20">Bottom-right</div>
</div>

It is also possible to mix two or more classes. ex: Mixing top-left top-right will produce the following CSS styling

top:0; left:0; right:0
