Essentially, I'm trying to add a list of four buttons/links fixed to the centre of the left side of the page. However, I'm trying to apply the same, single background across the elements using background-attachment: fixed;
.
Here is a brief example; I'm trying to have the wavey background visible only inside the red lines:
Here is what I currently have (where #social-media
is the parent and .social-media-button
is for the children):
#social-media {
position: fixed;
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
height: fit-content;
width: fit-content;
top: 50%;
-ms-transform: translateY(-50%);
transform: translateY(-50%);
}
.social-media-button {
width: 200px;
height: 80px;
margin: 10px;
/* border: solid red 4px; */
border-radius: 15px;
background: var(--wave-url); /* --wave-url is just url("path/to/image") */
background-attachment: fixed;
background-size: 220px 400px;
/* background-position: center; */
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
... but it comes out like this:
I know that when the position of an element is set to something like fixed
then it is no longer visible to its parent, so I can see why this would affect background-attachment: fixed;
of the children. Is there a way around this, however?
