angular material mat-drawer issue with height

For some reason, I can't seem to get the mat drawer to occupy the remaining available height on the screen. I've tried:
.drawer-container {
position: fixed;
height: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
width: 100%;
min-width: 100%;
}
But I still get an overflow for some reason even though there's only one element on screen as indicated by the scroll bar:
And when I remove the CSS rules, I end up with this:
Basically about 10% of the screen height only. I've considered using a fixed height, but I'm guessing it would look cut off if viewed on a larger or smaller monitor. I'd appreciate any help as I'm really not familiar with the full properties of angular material and how to properly manipulate them. Thanks in advance.

in case any dropped by this and had a similar problem.
i fixed this long ago by applying
.drawer-container {
position: absolute;
top:0;
width: 100%;
bottom: 0;
}
just make sure the parent has a position: relative

Percentage based width/height is not yet supported by mat-sidenav i suppose.
try height: 100vh; instead.
that should work, but will add a scrollbar if there is any toolbar in your page.
UPDATE:
HTML:
<mat-drawer-container class="parent" autosize>
<mat-drawer mode="side">
Your sidenav content
</mat-drawer>
<div class="content">
Your main content.
</div>
</mat-drawer-container>
CSS:
.parent {
width: 100%;
height: 100vh; // calc(100vh - 64px) can be used if there is navbar at the top
}
.content {
height: 100%;
}

Change the dimensions of a fullscreen html5 video

Is there a way to modify how the fullscreen functionality of a video behaves in a browser? I would like to display the video on the left side of my screen and an image (actually a PDF) on the right side.
I have tried it with css in chrome:
video:-webkit-full-screen
And that gave me some results, but not the desired one. Should I create a custom action for this? And if so, how can I let the video break out of the borders of the browsers?

You should insert the <video> tag inside a <div> with a defined height and width with the following attributes:
.video-container {
position: relative;
height: auto;
width: 60%;
}
video {
width: 100%;
max-width: 500px; // Or whatever value on your choice
height: auto;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
With a width of 100%, the video would fill the entire browser space but limit how big it can be by setting a max-width or max-height for the resolution and the responsiveness. I hope that my answer helps you!
EDIT
To fit in properly inside a div, you have to assign to the container position: relative and position: absolute to the video itself. If you want to break out from the borders, then you have to tweak the dimensions of max-height and max-widthof the video.
Check this question, since it is similar to yours.

How to get background image cover with 100% height?

I'm using an image with a height of 5000px, and i want make it always appear 100% in width and height to cover the background, in mobile and desktop.
.main {
position: relative;
background: url('../images/background.png') no-repeat top center;
background-size: cover;
width: 100%;
}
This code does not work, it makes her not to appear. I always need to set a height, and the problem is that the mobile's height is different from the desktop.
So you could say.. 'you can set height: 100%'.. and I did .. but nothing happens, the image doesn't appear, only if i set with pxs.

UPDATE
I feel urged to update my answer since I apparently understood the question the wrong way. I'll leave the old version at the bottom since apparently a lot of people found it helpful even though it failed to answer the original question.
Since your background image is repeating itself, I'll assume you don't want the whole image, just whatever height you need. So, you need 2 things:
set a height on .main
get rid of background-size altogether
So, this should actually work for you:
.main {
position: relative;
background: url('../images/background.png') no-repeat top center;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
If my assumption is correct, there's 1 more thing: you don't need a background over 5000px high to achieve your goal, just reduce it to 1px height (i.e. 1 line of your desired background) and change your css to:
.main {
position: relative;
background: url('../images/background.png') repeat-y top center;
background-size: cover;
width: 100%;
}
I hope this helps
OLD VERSION
Your .main has no height and height:100%; doesn't work because the elements containing it have no height themselves.
One possible solution would be to add this:
html, body, .main {
height:100%;
}
This might be exactly what you need, but you may also run into other problems with this solution. It all depends on what you're actually trying to achieve.
Other possible solutions:
Use viewport units
.main {
height:100vh;
}
Please be aware that some mobile devices interpret these differently from what you'd expect.
Add the background to the body itself
body {
background: url('../images/background.png') no-repeat top center;
background-size: cover;
}
As I wrote before: It's difficult to tell which solution is the best, it depends on your goal.

Have you tried adding this style?
html, body{ height: 100%;}
Then adding a height:100%; to your .main div

You are working with background-image... Keep in mind that the size of the rendered image has nothing to do with the image it self, but with the element created to contain it.
Now, if you want your image to appear at 100% height and width you can use the property background-size: contain, instead of cover.
This will tell the browser that your image should not be cropped (as long as you have a height set for the .main element).
It seems to me, that the kind of effect you want is easier done if you just use the <img> tag instead of css background.

I had a issue about flex box can`t fit the background height, and the code below suited for me. The rest background-size,repeat and position depends on yours.
html{
height:auto;
}
body{
display: flex;
flex-direction: column;
min-height: 100vh;
}

CSS - max-height doesn't work for printing image

I've created a web application where you can draw an image. When you print the the website, there should only be the image, and it should use as much space as possible on one page.
My problem: if the image is much higher than wide, it still uses the full width and the lower edge is cut off or is on a second page! Firefox also cuts off about 2% of the image at the right edge. How can I solve this problem using css? Or is this only possible with JavaScript?
#media print {
#content {
display:none;
}
#canvas {
position:absolute;
max-width:100%;
max-height:100%;
margin:0px;
}
}
Here's my JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/Gh28n/6/

The trick is to set a fixed with so large it can fit any paper, and set the max-width to 100% so it will always be scaled down, and height to auto to maintain the aspect ratio, like so:
#canvas {
width: 9999em;
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 100%;
height: auto;
}
As for the clipping on the edge, removing the position: absolute fixed it.
edit: added max-height: 100%;

Controlling aspect ratio of images with % width and height of body

I have these two images appearing in my site that I am pulling from another company's server. I need these photos to scale with the browser window so I've given them a % width and height to scale with the body.
The problem is some of these images are different sizes and I need all the images to look identical to each other. This is easy to do when I know the values of the image's width and height because I can just crop or resize. But how can you maintain a ratio with a scalable width and height?
I think some JavaScript is required to do this. Here's the CSS that I have:
html {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
body {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
}
.image {
width: 40%;
height: 40%;
margin: 1%;
}

If you're not concerned about IE8, you can just specify the width. Most browsers will maintain the aspect ratio for you.

Doing it with CSS only will take you a lot of time to optimize for all brosers.
With a few modifications and js you may achieve this using Perfect background image
