Sample code sharing of six very useful text styles in CSS

Previous words

CSS text style is a style modification relative to the content. Because in the cascading relationship, the content is higher than the background. So text style is relatively more important. Some people don’t quite understand the difference between text and font styles. Simply put, text is content, and fonts are used to display this content. This article will introduce text-related styles in detail

First line indentation

Definition

First line Indentation is to indent the first line of a paragraph, which is a common text formatting effect. Generally, when writing Chinese, there are two blank spaces at the beginning, similar to this

[Note] This attribute can be a negative value

text-indent

Value: | | inherit

Initial value: 0

Applies to: block-level elements (including block and inline- block)

Inheritance: Yes

Percentage: Relative to the width of the containing block

Apply

【Hanging Indent】

p{
    width: 200px;
    border: 1px solid black;
    text-indent: -1em;//关键代码
    padding-left: 1em;//关键代码
}

【Drop cap】

p{
    width: 200px;
    border: 1px solid black;
    text-indent: 0.5em;
}
p:first-letter{
    font-size: 30px;
    float: left;
}

Horizontal alignment

Definition

Horizontal alignment is the horizontal alignment that affects the text in an element

text-align

Value : left | center | right | justify | inherit

Initial value: left

Applies to: block-level elements (including block and inline-block)

Inheritance: Yes

Justified

When the horizontal alignment is justified, word-spacing may adjust so that the text fits exactly across the entire line. If you specify a length value for letter-spacing, letter-spacing will not be affected by justification unless the letter-spacing value is normal

IE compatible

For IE7-browser, using text-align will not only change the horizontal alignment of the text, but also change the horizontal alignment of descendant block-level elements

.box{
    width: 200px;
    height: 200px;
    background-color: pink;
    border: 1px solid black;
    text-align: right;
}    .in{
    height: 100px;
    width: 100px;
    background-color: lightgreen;
}

<p class="box">
    <p class="in">测试文字</p></p>

Word spacing

Word spacing refers to the word spacing, used to set the spacing between text or words . In fact, "word" represents a string of any non-whitespace characters, surrounded by some kind of whitespace character

[Note] Words are separated by spaces, and the spacing between words = word-spacing + Space size

　[Note]Word spacing can be negative values

word-spacing

Value: | normal | inherit

Initial value: normal (default is 0)

Applies to: all elements

Inheritance: Yes

Letter interval

Letter spacing refers to the character spacing

[Note] Letter spacing can be a negative value

letter-spacing

Value: < ;length> | normal | inherit

Initial value: normal (default is 0)

Applies to: all elements

Inheritance: Yes

Text conversion

Text conversion is used to process English case conversion

text-transform

Value: uppercase(all uppercase ) | lowercase (all lowercase) | capitalize (capitalize the first letter) | none | inherit

Initial value: none

Applies to: all elements

Inheritance: yes

Text modification

Definition

Text modification is used to provide decorative lines for text

　[Note] The color of the text decoration line is the same as the text color

text-decoration

Value: none | [underline (underline) || overline (overline) || line -through(underline)] | inherit

Initial value: none

Applies to: all elements

Inheritance: none

Inheritance

Text decoration properties cannot be inherited, which means that any decoration lines on the text of the child element are the same color as the parent element. The decorative line on the text of the child element actually belongs to the parent element, it just "passes through" it.

[Note] There can be multiple text modification lines that do not conflict with each other

Finally

Indent the first line (text-index), Among the six text styles: horizontal alignment (text-align), word-spacing (word-spacing), letter-spacing (letter-spacing), text-transform (text-transform), and text-decoration (text-decoration), the first line is indented (text-index) and horizontal alignment (text-align) can only be applied to block-level elements (including block and inline-block). This is the most important thing to note
