How to Position an Element Fixed Vertically But Relative Horizontally
In this scenario, we need a button positioned a fixed distance from the right side of a container, regardless of viewport size. It should also scroll with the window, maintaining a consistent vertical and horizontal offset. To achieve this:
- Define a container div (div.inflow) with a fixed width, height, and right margin.
- Optionally, add a wrapper div (div.positioner) to position the fixed element horizontally within the container.
- Create the fixed element (div.fixed) with a defined width, height, and top margin.
- Set position: fixed on the fixed element to anchor it to the viewport.
- Refrain from setting left or right on the fixed element. Instead, utilize the container and wrapper divs to establish the horizontal position.
HTML:
<body>
<div class="inflow">
<div class="positioner">
<div class="fixed"></div>
</div>
</div>
</body>CSS:
div.inflow {
width: 200px;
height: 1000px;
border: 1px solid blue;
float: right;
position: relative;
margin-right: 100px;
}
div.positioner {
position: absolute;
right: 0;
}
div.fixed {
width: 80px;
border: 1px solid red;
height: 100px;
position: fixed;
top: 60px;
margin-left: 15px;
}Note: If the container width is not fixed, the wrapper div (div.positioner) is necessary to push the fixed element to the right side of the container.
Important: Setting overflow: hidden on the container has no effect on the fixed position div being outside its boundaries. The fixed position effectively removes it from the container's overflow context.
