Heads up! If you’re also using modernizr inside your pages, for a better user experience, .f8-icon--ic-hourglass
will be shown by default when you’re using one of the loader SVG animation icons in browsers that do not support SVG animations such as IE and old Edge.
The calendar icon also supports dynamic date text.
<i class="f8-icon f8-icon--ic-calendar" data-f8-date="29" title="December 29, 2016"></i>
The counter icon can also count any element that has its counter-increment style
value to f8-icon-counter
.
- Item One
- Item Two
<ol style="list-style-type: none;">
<li style="counter-increment: f8-icon-counter;"><i class="f8-icon f8-icon--ic-counter"></i> Item One</li>
<li style="counter-increment: f8-icon-counter;"><i class="f8-icon f8-icon--ic-counter"></i> Item Two</li>
</ol>
All Modifiers Together
Now let’s combine all modifiers together to build unique and beautiful styles.
<i style="width: 60px;" class="f8-icon f8-icon--ic-framework8 f8-icon--size-100"></i>
<i style="width: 60px;" class="f8-icon f8-icon--ic-loader-text f8-icon--size-100"></i>
I <i style="--f8-icon-color: pink;" class="f8-icon f8-icon--size-inherit f8-icon--state-inline f8-icon--ic-heart"></i> YOU
Combine with Other Blocks
Now let’s combine the block with others to get even more awesome styles.
You can use padding for the icon to force the inner SVG or IMG have some more space from the edges. In our example here we’ve used the .u8-p
utility class.
<i style="width: 100px;" class="f8-icon f8-icon--size-100 f8-icon--ic-framework8 u8-p"></i>
You can also use other utility classes to style even font icons in different ways.
<div style="--my-size: 100px; width: var(--my-size); height: var(--my-size);" class="u8-d-flex-inline u8-bg-color-fitful-against-alpha-hover u8-transition u8-p">
<i style="font-size: calc(var(--my-size) / 2)" class="f8-icon f8-icon--size-100 fa fa-user"></i>
</div>
<i class="f8-icon f8-icon--size-xs f8-icon--color-reddish f8-icon--state-inline f8-icon--ic-star-full"></i> 5.0 (72)
