Hello and thank you for this amazing plugin!
My question is, how it is possible to vertically center multi-lined text when for instance “Item Height” is set to 70 and “Item Line Height ” is set to 25? At the moment unfortunately the lines of my menu stick at the top …

Thank you very much in advance for your answer.

Best regards

Hey Tilman,

I don’t think that is possible. A line height smaller than the height will stick it to the top like that.

Is there any reason you can’t set the height and line height to the same?

Please advise

Hey Peter,
thank you for your answer! When “Item Line Height” has the same value as “Item Height” both lines of text are getting evenly spread in the box — and with “Item Height” set to 70 the space between them unfortunately becomes too big.

Hey TIlman,

Yeah unfortunately that will be the case. I’m not sure you can vertically align double lined text inside of a div.

Maybe you can try the various vertical-alignment CSS options but I don’t think they will work. Have you tried Googling for CSS solutions to vertically aligning multi lined text?

Hey Peter,
yes I did. It is possible when using
display: table-cell;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;

The problem then is that the table-cell doesn’t fill the entire width of the menu … so the container’s background-color is visible.

There seems to be yet another solution which is described here: https://css-tricks.com/centering-in-the-unknown/
But my css-knowledge isn’t that good to check how to apply this for responsive menu …

Hey Tilman,

You can find the CSS classes easily by using the browser inspector tools and then just inspecting the particular element.

Unfortunately you still haven’t provided your site URL so it’s hard to say as I can’t see the issue.

I hope that helps

Hey Peter,
this is the page I am currently working on: http://zentrum-deradikalisierung.de/wp

Although I’m using the browser inspector tools unfortunately I can’t figure out what the exact classes of the divs are — the div that contains the link-text and it’s parent. At the moment I am using:
.responsive-menu-pro-item-link — for the div that contains the link-text
li.responsive-menu-pro-item — for it’s parent
but that doesn’t seems to be right as it has no impact. Do have any idea which class-names I should take instead?

Thank you!
Tilman

Hey Tilman,

Thanks for the site address. I’ve had a play around with the site and can’t find a way to make it work. I’ve tried flexbox, justify-content, align-items options and none of the work for me I’m afraid.

Your CSS classnames are correct, you will just likely need to append !important to any changes you make because otherwise the plugin CSS is probably overwriting them.

Please let me know if you find a way of getting this to work with my plugin.

All the best

Hey Peter,
thank you for your effort! As I am still looking for a solution I stumbled across this page and it’s menu: https://drudel11.de/de/
Centering multiple lines is working here. Do you have any idea what the difference could be between the menus?

Best regards

Hey Tilman,

They seem to be just using padding on the top and bottom, similar to what the solution was on this support request https://responsive.menu/forums/topic/long-menu-titles/

All the best

Hey Peter,
I’ve finally found a working solution by adding the following lines of css:

span.menu-image-title {
height:100%;
display:-webkit-box;
-webkit-box-align:center;
}

Best regards
