Examples

The example below shows the different values for IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration3::flex-wrap and their effect on the flex items below.

<div id="flexContainer">
   <div id="item1">1</div>
   <div id="item2">2</div>
   <div id="item3">3</div>
   <div id="item4">4</div>
   <div id="item5">5</div>
   <div id="item6">6</div>
</div>

In this example, IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration3::flex-wrap is set to the initial value, nowrap. When the flex container is resized, the flex items remain in a single row.

#flexContainer {
   border: solid 1px #949494;
   display: flex;
   flex-wrap: nowrap;       
}

In the example below, IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration3::flex-wrap is set to wrap. When the flex container is resized, the flex items are wrapped and displayed in successive, parallel rows. The flex container expands in height perpendicular to the axis defined by the IHTMLCurrentStyle2::writingMode property, to accommodate the additional rows or columns.

#flexContainer {
   border: solid 1px #949494;
   display: flex;
   flex-wrap: wrap;     
}

In this example, IHTMLCSSStyleDeclaration3::flex-wrap is set to wrap-reverse. When the flex container is resized, the flex items are wrapped and displayed in successive, parallel rows in reverse order. The flex container expands in height, perpendicular to the axis defined by the IHTMLCurrentStyle2::writingMode property, to accommodate the additional rows.

img

#flexContainer {
   border: solid 1px #949494;
   display: flex;
   flex-wrap: wrap-reverse;     
}
