What is the best way to ensure both landscape and portrait images are completely responsive and equal in height within a carousel?

I am currently working with a bootstrap carousel that contains both portrait and landscape images. On wide screens, the carousel height is automatically set to match the tallest image's height. However, this behavior results in white spaces on the top and bottom of the images when the window size is reduced for mobile screens.

To address this issue, I believe that all images should have the same height, and the carousel height should be set to match the shortest image's height rather than the tallest one. Unfortunately, I have not been able to figure out how to achieve this.

Desired State (Both wide and mobile):

Answer №1

When I ran your code, nothing appeared on the screen. To address this issue, I decided to add a new div within each carousel-item and applied some CSS styling to meet your specifications. Additionally, for the narrow image, I opted to use an img tag instead.

Here is the solution I came up with: ?

        .att2 {
            background-size: cover;
            height: 400px;
            width: auto;
            background-repeat: no-repeat;
            background-position: 50% 50%;
        }
     <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Document</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.2/css/bootstrap.min.css">

</head>

                        <li data-target="#carouselExampleIndicators1" data-slide-to="0" class="active"></li>
                        <li data-target="#carouselExampleIndicators1" data-slide-to="1"></li>
                        <li data-target="#carouselExampleIndicators1" data-slide-to="2"></li>
