# Object Fit
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The `object-fit` property specifies how an element responds to the width / height of its parent box.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
This property can be used for image, video, or any other media. It can also be used with the `object-position` property to get more control on how the media is displayed.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Basically we use the `object-fit` property to define how it stretch or squish an inline media.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Syntax
 | 
						|
```css
 | 
						|
.element {
 | 
						|
  object-fit: fill || contain || cover || none || scale-down;
 | 
						|
}
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Values
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `fill`: **This is the default value**. Resize the content to match its parent box regardless of the aspect-ratio.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `contain`: Resize the content to fill its parent box using the correct aspect-ratio.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `cover`: similar as `contain` but often cropping the content.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `none`: display the image in its original size.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
* `scale-down`: compare the difference between `none` and `contain` to find the smallest concrete object size.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Browser Compatibility
 | 
						|
The `object-fit` is supported by most of the modern browsers, for the most updated info about compatibility you can check this out http://caniuse.com/#search=object-fit
 | 
						|

Also there's a polyfill for unsupported browser (mostly IE).
