outline-offset

Examples

Basic example

Use utilities like outline-offset-2 and outline-offset-4 to change the offset of an element's outline:

<button class="outline-2 outline-offset-0 ...">Button A</button><button class="outline-2 outline-offset-2 ...">Button B</button><button class="outline-2 outline-offset-4 ...">Button C</button>

Using a custom value

Use the outline-offset-[<value>] syntax to set the outline offset based on a completely custom value:

<div class="outline-offset-[2vw] ...">  <!-- ... --></div>

For CSS variables, you can also use the outline-offset-(<custom-property>) syntax:

<div class="outline-offset-(--my-outline-offset) ...">  <!-- ... --></div>

This is just a shorthand for outline-offset-[var(<custom-property>)] that adds the var() function for you automatically.

Responsive design

Prefix an outline-offset utility with a breakpoint variant like md: to only apply the utility at medium screen sizes and above:

<div class="outline md:outline-offset-2 ...">  <!-- ... --></div>
