Responsiveness

Some components have a property named Responsiveness. This makes the widget responsive -- or fluid.

The way this is done is by wrapping the widget in a div.embed-responsive element. If you are using Twitter Bootstrap, this will work automatically. However, if you are not using Bootstrap, you will have to add some CSS. Check out this Gist for an example of how you can achieve this.

Options:

  • Fixed - Disables responsiveness and uses size defined with width and height.
  • 4:3 - Enables responsiveness with 4:3 size.
  • 16:9 - Enables responsiveness with 16:9 size.

Note: When responsiveness is enabled, you can skip setting a fixed width and height.
