Topic: Layout of icons in Sidebar- how to use margins in the component
JayP127 free asked 3 years ago
Expected behavior I was expecting icons to be centered horizontally in the sidebar Actual behavior Right margin larger than left margin Also, I would like to know how to position the icons on the top and bottom of the sidebar Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)
The code I have for the sidebar is the following:
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link"><i class="fas fa-file-contract fa-lg"></i><span data-mdb-slim="false"> Category 1</span></a>
<ul class="sidenav-collapse">
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link">Link 2</a>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link">Link 3</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link"><i class="fas fa-folder fa-lg"></i><span data-mdb-slim="false">Category 2</span></a>
<ul class="sidenav-collapse">
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link">Link 4</a>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link">Link 5</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link"><i class="fas fa-envelope fa-lg"></i><span data-mdb-slim="false">Category 3</span></a>
<ul class="sidenav-collapse">
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link">Link 6</a>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link">Link 7</a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link"><i class="fas fa-gavel fa-lg"></i></a>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link"><i class="far fa-edit fa-lg"></i></a>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link"><i class="fas fa-print fa-lg"></i></a>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link"><i class="fas fa-question-circle fa-lg"></i></a>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link"><i class="fas fa-user fa-lg"></i></a>
</li>
<li class="sidenav-item">
<a class="sidenav-link"><i class="fas fa-cog fa-lg"></i></a>
</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
</nav>

You can use margin class such as me
for icons, for example <i class="fas fa-grin fa-fw me-3"></i>
will add some margin-right. More about spacing here: https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/standard/utilities/spacing/
