## Float Left/Right
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You can change the float behavior of an element by adding the `.float-left` or `.float-right` classes to an element. To clear floats, add the class `.clearfix` to the parent element.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<div class="callout primary">
|
||
|
|
<p>Float Left/Right classes use `!important` to ensure they aren't overriden by more specific selectors. This framework conscientiously avoids using `!important` declarations. This is one of the few components that does.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<div class="callout warning">
|
||
|
|
<p>Float classes don't flip direction in a <a href="rtl.html">right-to-left</a> environment—<code>left</code> always means left, and <code>right</code> always means right.</p>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<div class="callout alert">
|
||
|
|
<p><strong>Deprecation Notice:</strong> From v6.5.x, we are moving Float classes to <a href="prototyping-utilities.html">Prototype specific mode</a> and thus Float classes will be disabled by default. You can re-enable it though, with a simple `@include`.</p>

</div>

```html_example
|
||
|
|
<div class="callout clearfix">
|
||
|
|
<a class="button float-left">Left</a>
|
||
|
|
<a class="button float-right">Right</a>
|
||
|
|
</div>
|

## Float Center
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Okay, it's not *really* a float, but you can add the `.float-center` class to an element to engage the automatic margin centering trick. Note that this will only work on elements with an absolute width, which means not a percentage or `auto` width.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```html_example
|
||
|
|
<img src="assets/img/generic/voyager.jpg" class="float-center">
|
||
|
|
```
