如何在 CSS 中用颜色覆盖图像？

Question

Objective

I want a color overlay on this header element. How can I do this with CSS?

Code

 #header { /* Original url */ /*background: url(../img/bg.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat fixed;*/ background: url(https://fakeimg.pl/250x100/) 0 0 no-repeat fixed; height: 100%; overflow: hidden; color: #FFFFFF }

 <header id="header"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-xs-12"> ... </div> </div> </header>

Answer 1

You should use rgba for overlaying your element with photos.rgba is a way to declare a color in CSS that includes alpha transparency support. you can use .row as an overlayer like this:

#header {
    background: url(../img/bg.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat fixed;
    height: 100%;
    overflow: hidden;
    color: #FFFFFF
 }

.row{
    background: rgba(39,62,84,0.82);
    overflow: hidden;
    height: 100%;
    z-index: 2;
}

Answer 2

You can do that in one line of CSS .

background: linear-gradient(to top, #3204fdba, #9907facc), url(https://picsum.photos/1280/853/?random=1) no-repeat top center;

You can also modify the opacity of a color by hovering over it in VS Code and clicking on it to make it a hex color. It can be shortened to (#3204fde6, #9907fae6) instead of the rgba (rgba(48, 3, 252, 0.902), rgba(153, 7, 250, 0.902) .

 header { height: 100vh; width: 100%; color: white; font: bold 6.5em/2em monospace; display: flex; justify-content: center; align-items: center; background: linear-gradient(to top, #3204fdba, #9907facc), url(https://picsum.photos/1280/853/?random=1) no-repeat top center; }

 <header>Hello World</header>

Answer 3

You may use negative superthick semi-transparent border...

 .red { outline: 100px solid rgba(255, 0, 0, 0.5) !important; outline-offset: -100px; overflow: hidden; position: relative; height: 200px; width: 200px; }

 <div class="red">Anything can be red.</div> <h1>Or even image...</h1> <img src="https://cdn.sstatic.net/Sites/stackoverflow/company/img/logos/so/so-logo.png?v=9c558ec15d8a" class="red"/>

This solution requires you to know exact sizes of covered object.

Answer 4

You could use the hue-rotate function in the filter property. It's quite an obscure measurement though, you'd need to know how many degrees round the colour wheel you need to move in order to arrive at your desired hue, for example:

header {
    filter: hue-rotate(90deg);
}

Once you'd found the correct hue, you could combine the brightness and either grayscale or saturate functions to find the correct shade, for example:

header {
    filter: hue-rotate(90deg) brightness(10%) grayscale(10%);
}

The filter property has a vendor prefix in Webkit, so the final code would be:

header {
  -webkit-filter: hue-rotate(90deg) brightness(10%) grayscale(10%);
          filter: hue-rotate(90deg) brightness(10%) grayscale(10%);
}

Answer 5

Here's a creative idea using box-shadow :

#header {
    background-image: url("apple.jpg");
    box-shadow: inset 0 0 99999px rgba(0, 120, 255, 0.5);
}

What's happening

1. The background sets the background for your element.

2. The box-shadow is the important bit. It basically sets a really big shadow on the inside of the element, on top of the background, that is semi-transparent

#header.overlay {
    background-color: SlateGray;
    position:relative;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    opacity: 0.20;
    -moz-opacity: 20%;
    -webkit-opacity: 20%;
    z-index: 2;
}

Something like this. Just add the overlay class to the header, obviously.

Answer 7

To add an overlay, you can use the CSS background-blend-mode property something like this:

#header {
  background: url("img/image.jpg") 0 0 no-repeat fixed;
  height: 100%;
  overflow: hidden;
  background-color: hsl(206, 27%, 38%);
  background-blend-mode: multiply;
}

Answer 8

Use mutple backgorund on the element, and use a linear-gradient as your color overlay by declaring both start and end color-stops as the same value.

Note that layers in a multi-background declaration are read much like they are rendered, top-to-bottom, so put your overlay first, then your bg image:

#header {
  background: 
    linear-gradient(to bottom, rgba(100, 100, 0, 0.5), rgba(100, 100, 0, 0.5)),
    url(../img/bg.jpg) 0 0 no-repeat fixed;
  height: 100%;
  overflow: hidden;
  color: #FFFFFF
}

Answer 9

You can also add an additional class with such settings. Overlay will not overlap content and no additional tag is needed

.overlay {
  position: relative;
  z-index: 0;
}

.overlay::after {
    content: '';
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    background: red;
    opacity: .6;
    /* !!! */
    z-index: -1;
}

Answer 10

If you don't mind using absolute positioning, you can position your background image, and then add an overlay using opacity.

div {
    width:50px;
    height:50px;
    background:   url('http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20120626155442/adventuretimewithfinnandjake/images/6/67/Link.gif');
    position:absolute;
    left:0;
    top:0;
}

.overlay {
   background:red;
   opacity:.5;
}

Answer 11

In helpshift, they used the class home-page as

HTML

<div class="page home-page">...</div>

CSS

.home-page {
    background: transparent url("../images/backgrounds/image-overlay.png") repeat 0 0;
    background: rgba(39,62,84,0.82);
    overflow: hidden;
    height: 100%;
    z-index: 2;
}

you can try similar like this

Answer 12

If you want to just add a class to add the overlay:

 span { padding: 5px; } .green { background-color: green; color: #FFF; } .overlayed { position: relative; } .overlayed::before { content: ' '; z-index: 1; position: absolute; top: 0; bottom: 0; left: 0; right: 0; background-color: #00000080; } .stand-out { position: relative; z-index: 2; }

 <span class="green overlayed">with overlay</span> <span class="green">without overlay</span> <br> <br> <span class="green overlayed"> <span class="stand-out">I stand out</span> </span>

Important: the element you put the overlayed class on needs to have a position set. If it doesn't, the ::before element will take the size of some other parent element. In my example I've set the position to "relative" via the .overlayed rule, but in your use case you might need "absolute" or some other value.

Also, make sure that the z-index of the overlayed class is higher than the ones of the eventual child elements of the container, unless you actually want for those to "stand out" and not be overlayed (as with the span with the stand-out class, in my snippet).
