I m using zurb foundation 5 5.
Mat icon next to text.
Icons ought to be treated a lot like typography.
We have to import maticonmodule from angular material modules.
Mat icons used as a matprefix or matsuffix should vertically align with the input text placeholder.
To add the icon to mat button text we need to add mat icon before the text of button as shown below h3 mat button with icon and text h3 button mat raised button color primary mat icon shopping cart mat icon add to cart button.
This doesn t mean icons need to be 16px if your content font size is also 16px.
What is the current behavior.
Whats the correct way of placing an icon next to text.
Icons material icons are delightful beautifully crafted symbols for common actions and items.
Mat icon is part of angular material module called maticonmodule we can use font ligature as an icon by putting the ligature text in mat icon component.
I have tried various ways but the text and icon are never horizontally aligned.
Codepen and steps to reproduce the issue.
What is the expected behavior.
Surprisingly it added padding to both the icon and the div.
They re either used in conjunction with text or in place of it so setting the size of the icon to the size of the text next to it is important for the same reason we like consistently sized letters.
For example mat icon home mat icon displays home icon.
Bug feature request or proposal.
A telephone icon next to a phone number.
Icons are positioned too high.
That seems broken to me as the icon is outside of the div.
