Angled Edges :triangular_ruler:

A Sass mixin for creating angled edges on sections by dynamically encoding SVGs.

Need angled edges in regular CSS? Check out the Angled Edges Generator.

Usage

Import partial:

@import "angled-edges";

This mixin has 3 required parameters: location, hypotenuse, fill

@include angled-edge($location, $hypotenuse, $fill);

The main mixin creates an svg right triangle that is encoded, set as a background image of a pseudo element, and absolutely positioned.

Options

Parameter	Description
$location	Location of shape relative to parent element inside top outside top inside bottom outside bottom
$hypotenuse	Side of the right triangle that the hypotenuse is on upper left upper right lower left lower right
$fill	Fill color of triangle
$height	Optional - Height of triangle - Accepts a unitless integer that is equivalent to height in px
$width	Optional - Width of triangle - Accepts a unitless integer that is equivalent to width in px (If nothing is passed triangle will span to a 100% fluid width)

Upgrading from 1.x

Version 2 now defaults with a fluid width of 100%. Since this is the preferred value, width and height parameters have switched order with height now being first. This allows for easier usage where

@include angled-edge('outside bottom', 'lower right', 150);

now means a 150px tall with at a default of 100% width. If a fluid width is not needed, you can still pass in a unitless width like in 1.x. If you previously were using background-size to manipulate the shape, you will need to remove this property as the mixin also uses this to assist with making the shape full-width.
