Utilities for controlling how a replaced element's content should be positioned within its container.

Examples

Basic example

Use utilities like object-left and object-bottom-right to specify how a replaced element's content should be positioned within its container:

<img class="size-24 object-top-left ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="size-24 object-top ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="size-24 object-top-right ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="size-24 object-left ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="size-24 object-center ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="size-24 object-right ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="size-24 object-bottom-left ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="size-24 object-bottom ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" /><img class="size-24 object-bottom-right ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

Using a custom value

Use the object-[<value>] syntax to set the object position based on a completely custom value:

<img class="object-[25%_75%] ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

For CSS variables, you can also use the object-(<custom-property>) syntax:

<img class="object-(--my-object) ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />

This is just a shorthand for object-[var(<custom-property>)] that adds the var() function for you automatically.

Responsive design

Prefix an object-position utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:

<img class="object-center md:object-top ..." src="/img/mountains.jpg" />
