I wanted to add padding to the right side of the arrow present in the HTML select how it currently looks.
I do not want to change the looks of the arrow. Just want a padding to the right side.
This is the html code -
<div class="blood-type">
<select class="rectangle">
<option value="" disabled selected>Select One</option>
<option *ngFor="let bg of bgList" [value]="bg.id">{{bg.name}}</option>
</select>
I have tried adding padding to the rectangle class as well as the blood-type class but both doesn't work.
.blood-type{
padding-right: 0.5rem;
}
I have also tried this but the text arrow does not looks good. I can also use the arrow_drop_down icon if it is possible to use icon.
Perhaps something like this could help:
CSS:
select {
-webkit-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
border: none;
}
.blood-type {
position: relative;
border: 1px solid black;
border-radius: 2px;
padding: 5px;
}
.blood-type::after {
content: "▼";
font-size: 1rem;
right: 10px;
position: absolute;
}
.rectangle {
width: 100%;
}
HTML:
<div class="blood-type">
<select class="rectangle">
<option value="" disabled selected>Select One</option>
<option *ngFor="let bg of bgList" [value]="bg.id">{{bg.name}}</option>
</select>
</div>
