What's the right way to float right or left using the material-ui appbar with material-ui-next?

146.3k views Asked by At

I can't figure out if I'm using the right approach to get the login/logout buttons to float right in while using material-ui-next ("material-ui": "^1.0.0-beta.22",)

It seems they removed iconElementRight= from the api. Do we have to use the <Grid> now in the appbar? It feels kinds of cludgy. What's the right way to float buttons (e.g. login) in the appbar?

<AppBar position="static">
      <Toolbar>
        <Grid container spacing={24}>
          <Grid item xs={11}>
            <Typography type="title" color="inherit">
              Title
            </Typography>
          </Grid>

          <Grid item xs={1}>
            <div>
              <HeartIcon />
              <Button raised color="accent">
                Login
              </Button>
            </div>
          </Grid>
        </Grid>
      </Toolbar>
    </AppBar>

@Kyle You had it right :)

just add to the grid container:

justify="space-between"

With your example:

<AppBar position="static">
  <Toolbar>
    <Grid
      justify="space-between" // Add it here :)
      container 
      spacing={24}
    >
      <Grid item>
        <Typography type="title" color="inherit">
          Title
        </Typography>
      </Grid>

      <Grid item>
        <div>
          <HeartIcon />
          <Button raised color="accent">
            Login
          </Button>
        </div>
      </Grid>
    </Grid>
  </Toolbar>
</AppBar>

You need to add flex: 1 to your <Typography /> component so it pushes the <div /> to the rightmost part of the AppBar:

<AppBar position="static">
  <Toolbar>
    <Typography type="title" color="inherit" style={{ flex: 1 }}>
      Title
    </Typography>
    <div>
      <HeartIcon />
      <Button raised color="accent">
        Login
      </Button>
    </div>
  </Toolbar>
</AppBar>

Just use the property align="right" as shown here https://mui.com/api/typography/

<Toolbar>
  <Box sx={{ flexGrow: 1 }}>
    <Button variant='text' color='inherit'>Button1</Button>
    <Button variant='text' color='inherit'>Button2</Button>
    <Button variant='text' color='inherit'>Button3</Button>
  </Box>
  <Button variant='text' color='inherit'>Button4</Button>
</Toolbar>

Now Button4 will be positioned in the far right!

Fresh variant:

<Grid
  container
  direction="row"
  justifyContent="space-between"
  alignItems="center"
>
    <Grid item>Back</Grid>
    <Grid item>Next</Grid>
</Grid>
