Examples
Example
Here we want the reflection below the image:
img {
-webkit-box-reflect: below;
}
Example
Here we want the reflection to the right of the image:
img {
-webkit-box-reflect: right;
}
CSS Reflection Offset
To specify the gap between the image and the reflection, add the size of the gap to the box-reflect
property.
Example
Here we want the reflection below the image, with a 20px offset:
img {
-webkit-box-reflect: below 20px;
}
CSS Reflection With Gradient
We can also create a fade-out effect on the reflection.
Example
Create a fade-out effect on the reflection:
img {
-webkit-box-reflect: below 0px linear-gradient(to bottom, rgba(0,0,0,0.0), rgba(0,0,0,0.4));
}
