CSS Box Decoration Break - Qomplainerz - 07-26-2023
Description:
The box-decoration-break property allows you to control how backgrounds, borders, and box shadows behave when an element is broken across multiple lines.
Example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>CSS Box Decoration Break Example</title>
<style>
.decorated-text {
background-color: lightblue;
padding: 10px;
border: 2px solid red;
box-shadow: 5px 5px 5px grey;
box-decoration-break: clone;
/* OR use 'slice' value for different effect */
/* box-decoration-break: slice; */
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p class="decorated-text">This is a long text that wraps across multiple lines and the box decoration remains consistent.</p>
</body>
</html>
Explanation:
In this example, the .decorated-text paragraph has a background color, padding, border, and box shadow applied to it. By default, when text wraps across multiple lines, the box decorations are repeated for each line. The box-decoration-break: clone property ensures that the box decorations remain consistent even when the element breaks across lines.
