Consider this simple snippet:
div {
width: 100px;
border: 1px solid black;
}
<div>
<ul>
<li>AnArbitrary</li>
<li>ListElement</li>
</ul>
</div>
As you can see, the list items overflow the box.
But just let's add list-style-position: inside;
and then they suddenly stop:
div {
width: 100px;
border: 1px solid black;
}
ul {
list-style-position: inside;
}
<div>
<ul>
<li>AnArbitrary</li>
<li>ListElement</li>
</ul>
</div>
This breaking right after the bullet looks most ugly to me. I would like to prevent this from happening; I would rather like overflow.
But I still want list-style-position
to be set to inside
because I want to have full control on the position of the bullet.
Is there any way to do both? Can I prevent this linebreak right after the bullet while keeping list-style-position
set to inside
?
You can use white-space: nowrap;
on the list items:
div {
width: 100px;
border: 1px solid black;
}
ul {
list-style-position: inside;
}
li {
white-space: nowrap;
}
<div>
<ul>
<li>AnArbitrary</li>
<li>ListElement</li>
</ul>
</div>
