Object Fit

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

.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). https://github.com/anselmh/object-fit
