max-height

CSS属性 max-height 设置元素的最大高度。它防止height属性的使用值（used value）大于 max-height 的指定值。

尝试一下

max-height 会覆盖height, 而min-height 会覆盖 max-height.

Syntax

css

/* <length> value */
max-height: 3.5em;

/* <percentage> value */
max-height: 75%;

/* Keyword values */
max-height: none;
max-height: max-content;
max-height: min-content;
max-height: fit-content(20em);

/* Global values */
max-height: inherit;
max-height: initial;
max-height: unset;

Values

<length>

Defines the max-height as an absolute value.

<percentage>

Defines the max-height as a percentage of the containing block's height.

auto

The browser will calculate and select a max-height for the specified element.

none

No limit on the size of the box.

max-content

The intrinsic preferred max-height.

min-content

The intrinsic minimum max-height.

fit-content(<length-percentage>)

Uses the fit-content formula with the available space replaced by the specified argument, i.e. min(max-content, max(min-content, argument)).

Formal syntax

max-height = 
  none                                      |
  <length-percentage [0,∞]>                 |
  min-content                               |
  max-content                               |
  fit-content( <length-percentage [0,∞]> )  

<length-percentage> = 
  <length>      |
  <percentage>

Examples

css

table {
  max-height: 75%;
}

form {
  max-height: none;
}

Accessibility concerns

Ensure that elements set with a max-height are not truncated and/or do not obscure other content when the page is zoomed to increase text size.
