Tips for managing the dimensions of the <label> element within a React component

I'm facing an issue where the element size is not matching the box size as expected. Additionally, the width property doesn't seem to work in React.

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

const DragDrop = () => {
  ...

  return (
    <div className="DragDrop" style={{ height: `${30 + 5 * files.length}vh` }}>
      <input
        type="file"
        accept="audio/flac, audio/mp3, audio/ogg, audio/wav"
        id="fileUpload"
        style={{ display: "none" }}
        multiple={true}
        onChange={onChangeFiles}
      />
      <div className={isDragging ? "DragDrop-File-Dragging" : "DragDrop-File"}>
        <label htmlFor="fileUpload">
          <Box ref={dragRef} className={"DragDrop-FileBox"}>
            <Typography variant="h5">
              {isDragging
                ? "Drop here!"
                : "Drag files"}
            </Typography>
          </Box>
        </label>
      </div>
    </div>
  );
};

If I remove the element, the result appears as expected. https://i.sstatic.net/6IYsQ.png

Here is the SCSS file used for styling:

@mixin filledStyle() {
    background-color: grey;
    border-radius: 10px;
    color: white;
  }
  
  @mixin alignCenter() {
    display: flex;
    display: -webkit-flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    -ms-flex-direction: column;
    align-items: center;
  }

  @mixin alignCenterVertical() {
    display: flex;
    display: -webkit-flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    -ms-flex-direction: column;
    justify-content: center;
    align-items: center;
  }
  
  .DragDrop {
    width: 100%;
    height: 20vh;
    @include alignCenter();
    
    &-File {
      width: 100%;
      height: 200px;
      border: 2px dashed grey;
      border-radius: 10px;
      
      @include alignCenterVertical();
      cursor: pointer;
      transition: 0.12s ease-in;
  
      &-Dragging {
        width: 100%;
        @include filledStyle();
      }
    }

    &-FileBox {
      width: 100%;
      height: 200px;
      border: 2px dashed grey;
      border-radius: 10px;
      
      @include alignCenterVertical();
      cursor: pointer;
      transition: 0.12s ease-in;
  
    }
  }

Answer №1

Adjust the label width to 100% with a strong application of width 100% inside the label element

 .DragDrop {
  width: 100%;
  height: 20vh;
  @include alignCenter();
   label{
    width:100%;
   }
 }
