Hi @Konrad Stępień,

Thank you for your response. I have in fact read and followed those links well before asking any questions, I'm just vexed on this problem. CSS is definitely not my forte, which is why I purchased MDB to aid with, and speed up results.

Hi Aliaksandr,

No, I'm trying to keep the controls underneath, though you bring up an interesting point and I suppose that relates to Z-index.

I'm simply trying to use the bulk of the (and remaining) space for the video that would sit in between the title at the top, tabs underneath it, and then controls at the very bottom.

Hi,

You can use function components instead of class-based components when you are not going to use state(not quite correct after react v16.8 release - where you can use state in functional components). But in this example, there is no difference what are you going to use - functional or class-based component, the result will be the same.

Can't fully understand the result you want to achieve. If I got it right - you want the video to take up all the space, so buttons will be over the video?

Hi Konrad,

Thank you for responding. Yes, my completed code looked similar to that (well, without the formatting) and that's my mistake for only pasting what I thought was relevant.

My index.js file looks like this:

import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import './index.css';

import "@fortawesome/fontawesome-free/css/all.min.css";
import "bootstrap-css-only/css/bootstrap.min.css";
import "mdbreact/dist/css/mdb.css";

import App from './App';
import MenuTabs from './components/MenuTabs/MenuTabs';

import * as serviceWorker from './serviceWorker';

import { BrowserRouter, Route, Switch } from 'react-router-dom';

ReactDOM.render(
    <BrowserRouter>
    <Switch>
    <Route path="/" component={App} exact />
    <Route path="/Account" component={MenuTabs} exact />
    </Switch>
    </BrowserRouter>,
    document.getElementById('root')
);

serviceWorker.unregister();

In App.js, why are you using class test extends React.Component instead of function App()? I had started with create-react-app so I guess there's slight differences.

The problem that I can't solve is how to make the full screen where the iframe-based video uses the difference, regardless of orientation. The buttons do exactly what I'm looking for (although I would love to swap some of their positions in a future iteration), though I'm not entirely certain that I understand why I have to specify size in the way I did (I thought that everything was supposed to be 12?) but that's a separate problem.

Thanks.

Hi @ltgiv,

Could I ask you to clarify the problem further? Please, specify the exact error, I will try to help as much as I can.

I would also like to point out that snippets cans only use jQuery technology. Other technologies don't work yet for snippets.

If you wanna use this code on your React Project, you should use code like this.

import React from 'react';
import {
  MDBContainer,
  MDBRow,
  MDBCol,
  MDBBadge,
  MDBIcon,
  MDBBtn

  render() {
    return (
