Sticky

Angular Bootstrap 5 Sticky

Sticky is a component which allows elements to be locked in a particular area of the page. It is often used in navigation menus.

Note: Read the API tab to find all available options and advanced customization

Basic example

To start using sticky just use a mdbSticky directive on the element you want to pin

Download MDB 
        
            
            <div style="min-height: 500px" class="text-center" #boundary>
              <a
                id="sticky"
                type="button"
                href="https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/angular/getting-started/installation/"
                class="btn btn-outline-primary bg-body sticky"
                mdbSticky
                [stickyBoundary]="boundary"
                >Download MDB
              </a>
            </div>

Sticky bottom

You can pin element to bottom by adding [stickyPosition]="'bottom'" 

        
            
            <div style="min-height: 500px" class="text-center" #boundary>
              <img
                id="MDB-logo"
                src="https://mdbootstrap.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/logo-mdb-jquery-small.webp"
                alt="MDB Logo"
                class="sticky"
                mdbSticky
                [stickyBoundary]="boundary"
                [stickyPosition]="'bottom'"
                [stickyDirection]="'both'"
              />
            </div>

Boundary

Set [stickyBoundary]="boundary" so that sticky only works inside the parent element. Remember to set the correct parent height. 

        
            
            <div style="min-height: 500px" class="text-center" #boundary>
              <img
                id="MDB-logo"
                src="https://mdbootstrap.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/logo-mdb-jquery-small.webp"
                alt="MDB Logo"
                class="sticky"
                mdbSticky
                [stickyBoundary]="boundary"
                [stickyDirection]="'down'"
              />
            </div>

Outer element as a boundary

You can specify an element to be the sticky boundary.

Stop here
        
            
            <div
              style="min-height: 500px"
              class="d-flex flex-column justify-content-center text-center"
            >
              <div>
                <img
                  id="MDB-logo"
                  src="https://mdbootstrap.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/logo-mdb-jquery-small.webp"
                  alt="MDB Logo"
                  class="sticky"
                  mdbSticky
                  [stickyBoundary]="boundary"
                  [stickyDirection]="'both'"
                />
              </div>
              <div #boundary class="mt-auto" style="height: 5rem">Stop here</div>
            </div>

Direction

Default direction of sticky component is down. You can change it by setting data-mdb-sticky-direction="up" or data-mdb-sticky-direction="both"

Up Down Both 
        
            
            <div style="min-height: 500px" class="text-center" #boundary>
              <a
                type="button"
                class="btn btn-primary sticky"
                mdbSticky
                [stickyBoundary]="boundary"
                [stickyDirection]="'up'"
              >
                Up
              </a>
              <a
                type="button"
                class="btn btn-primary sticky"
                mdbSticky
                [stickyBoundary]="boundary"
                [stickyDirection]="'down'"
              >
                Down
              </a>
              <a
                type="button"
                class="btn btn-primary sticky"
                mdbSticky
                [stickyBoundary]="boundary"
                [stickyDirection]="'both'"
              >
                Both
              </a>
            </div>

Sticky with navbar

By default, sticky locks the element at the edge of the screen. If you have a navbar element on your website, it will hide behind it. You can prevent this by setting an offset and delay 

        
            
            <div style="min-height: 500px" class="text-center" #navbarExampleBoundary>
              <nav class="navbar sticky-top bg-body-tertiary mb-3" style="top: 100px">
                <div class="container-fluid">
                  <a class="navbar-brand" href="#">Navbar</a>
                </div>
              </nav>
              <img
                id="MDB-logo"
                src="https://mdbootstrap.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/logo-mdb-jquery-small.webp"
                alt="MDB Logo"
                class="sticky"
                mdbSticky
                [stickyBoundary]="navbarExampleBoundary"
                [stickyDirection]="'both'"
                [stickyOffset]="175"
                [stickyDelay]="175"
              />
            </div>
