## Background Size
|
|
|
|
The background-size property specifies the size of the background images. You can set a length or a percentage, with the first value being the width and the second one being the height. You can also use one of the 5 keyword values:
|
|
|
|
```css
|
|
/* Background size property values that can be used */
|
|
.auto {background-size: auto;}
|
|
.cover {background-size: cover;}
|
|
.contain {background-size: contain;}
|
|
.initial {background-size: initial;}
|
|
.inherit {background-size: inherit;}
|
|
/* Percentage, pixel, and viewport units can also be used */
|
|
.pixel {background-size: 50px 50px;}
|
|
.percentage {background-size: 50% 50%;}
|
|
.view {background-size: 50vw 50vh;}
|
|
```
|
|
Note: If using pixel or percentage for length and you only specify one value,
|
|
the second one will be set to auto by default.
|
|
|
|
To set this property on multiple background images separate values by comma:
|
|
```css
|
|
.multiple {
|
|
background-image: url(1.png), url(2.png);
|
|
background-size: 3px 3px, cover;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
