  • SOLVED How to create horizontal or vertical lines using Gantry 5 particle

    • I needed a 1.5 pixel high horizontal line in my template header. I used the logo/image particle and deleted any text, images, or css classes. Then I created the following class in the custom.scss file, and put the class title in the particle block's CSS Classes field.

      .template-header-line-below-images
      {
      border-style: solid;
      border-width: 0.75px;
      border-color: #cce6ff;
      height: 1.5px;
      }

      The border property created a rectangular outline, so I collapsed the rectangle into just the top line and bottom line together (0.75px each), which then equaled the height of the 1.5px line that I needed.

      Using border properties, you could create a two colored line, by giving the top line a different color than the bottom line of the collapsed rectangle. Or you could create a vertical line by collapsing the rectangle in the other direction.

      Maybe this will help someone, or someone will suggest an alternative method.

      This might be an acceptable alternate method using the CSS "before or after" pseudo-class placed on your element.
      .kpost-post-header h4:after {
    content: "";
    display: block;
    border: 0;
    border-top: 3px solid #ccc !important;
    margin: .25rem 0;
    padding: 0;
}
.kpost-post-header h4:before {
    content: "";
    display: block;
    border: 0;
    border-top: 3px solid #ccc !important;
    margin: .25rem 0;
    padding: 0;
}

      gets me this:
