I would like to create a custom shape like this image :
how can I do ?
My CSS :
#chevron {
position: relative;
text-align: center;
padding: 12px;
margin-bottom: 6px;
height: 60px;
width: 200px; }
#chevron:before {
content: '';
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 51%;
background: #337AB7;
-webkit-transform: skew(0deg, 6deg); -moz-transform: skew(0deg, 6deg);
-ms-transform: skew(0deg, 6deg);
-o-transform: skew(0deg, 6deg);
transform: skew(0deg, 6deg); }
#chevron:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 50%;
background: #337AB7;
-webkit-transform: skew(0deg, -6deg); -moz-transform: skew(0deg, -6deg); -ms-transform: skew(0deg, -6deg); -o-transform: skew(0deg, -6deg); transform: skew(0deg, -6deg); }
My HTML file :
<div id="chevron">
</div>
But my result isn't what I want :
- Add the background color to the parent div to fill in the gap
- Place the
border-radius
on the parent div to create the two rounded corners
- Move the
:before
and :after
down slightly with top: 20px
so they don't peak out the top of the div
Example
Here is a fiddle of the below:
#chevron {
width: 350px;
height: 100px;
background: #337AB7;
border-radius: 10px 10px 0 0;
position: relative;
}
#chevron:before {
content: '';
position: absolute;
top: 20px;
left: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 51%;
background: #337AB7;
-webkit-transform: skew(0deg, 6deg);
-moz-transform: skew(0deg, 6deg);
-ms-transform: skew(0deg, 6deg);
-o-transform: skew(0deg, 6deg);
transform: skew(0deg, 6deg);
}
#chevron:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
top: 20px;
right: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 50%;
background: #337AB7;
-webkit-transform: skew(0deg, -6deg);
-moz-transform: skew(0deg, -6deg);
-ms-transform: skew(0deg, -6deg);
-o-transform: skew(0deg, -6deg);
transform: skew(0deg, -6deg);
}
<div id="chevron"></div>
You could skip the CSS and use svg:
Plunker
HTML:
<svg preserveAspectRatio="none" width="200px" height="100px">
<polygon points="0,0 200,0 200,80 100,100 0, 80"
style="fill:teal;stroke:rgba(0,0,0,1);stroke-width:0" />
</svg>
Note that if you need rounded on corners, svg polygons can be tricky as they do not inherently have an attribute similar to border-radius
. You can set stroke-linejoin="round"
and then adjusting the stroke
width attribute to adjust how much it rounds. This works good for solid shapes where you can set the stroke color the same as the fill, or if you can have a border of a different color.
HTML:
<svg width="300" height="200">
<polygon points="10,10 210,10 210,90 110,110 10, 90"
style="fill:teal;stroke:teal;stroke-width:10" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round" />
</svg>
I think that you want to write on this shape
