ba-media-object

Used to show some media and content side by side

Anim excepteur aliqua excepteur ullamco ullamco voluptate laboris commodo nisi veniam aliquip ut.

<ba-media-object>
  <ba-icon name="paper-plane" slot="media"></ba-icon>
  <ba-content>
    <p>Anim excepteur aliqua excepteur ullamco ullamco voluptate laboris commodo nisi veniam aliquip ut.</p>
  </ba-content>
</ba-media-object>

If ba-image is being used for the media slot, a width is required to be set on ba-image to make it show in ba-media-object. This is because the way the aspect ratio gets set within ba-image results in the main component not having a width.

Usage

Using with ba-icon

Basic example using an icon and some content

<ba-media-object>
  <ba-icon name="paper-plane" slot="media"></ba-icon>
  <ba-content>
    Anim excepteur aliqua excepteur ullamco ullamco voluptate laboris commodo nisi veniam aliquip ut.
  </ba-content>
</ba-media-object>

Aligning ba-icon with first line of content

Basic example using an icon and aligning it to the first line of content

<ba-media-object align-media-to="h4">
  <ba-icon name="paper-plane" slot="media" size="16"></ba-icon>
  <ba-content>
    <h4>Anim excepteur aliqua excepteur ullamco ullamco voluptate laboris commodo nisi veniam aliquip ut.</h4>
  </ba-content>
</ba-media-object>

Using with ba-image

When using ba-media-object with ba-image a width must be set on the ba-image component using css, otherwise the image will not show. This prevents layout shifts when the browser loads the image.

An example of ba-media-object being used with an image in the media block


<style>
  .your-media-object-image-class {
    width: 10rem;
  }
</style>


<ba-media-object>
  <ba-image
    class="your-media-object-image-class"
    slot="media"
    alt="Description of image"
    src="https://www.britishairways.com/assets/images/MediaHub/Media-Database/Royalty-free-RF/Destinations/USA/Florida/Orlando-MCO/524927017_1920x1080.jpg"

  ></ba-image>
  <ba-content>
    Anim excepteur aliqua excepteur ullamco ullamco voluptate laboris commodo nisi veniam aliquip ut.
