Bootstrap 4 菜单下拉菜单和子菜单下拉菜单具有相同的高度

Question

I'm using Bootstrap 4 and trying to get menu-dropdown and sub-menu-dropdown to have equal heights.

So far, I manage to get menu-dropdown height to be equal to sub-menu-dropdown and not the other way around using jQuery. How do I manage to make it look like this as shown below:

<div id="main-nav" class="justify-content-end">
  <ul id="menu-main-menu" class="navbar-nav">

  var myUl=$("ul", $(this));

  myUl.each(function(){

  });

  myUl.height(maxHeight);
});

Run this snippet to see how your problems are compounded with a smaller resolution. The answer to your question is only going to work for a certain size screen unless you write css/js for all the different possible resolutions. There is a fiddle link at the bottom. Check that out too.

 $("#main-nav > ul > li").each(function() { var maxHeight = 0; var myUl = $("ul", $(this)); var marginsOfParentElement = 20; // this should be calculated myUl.each(function() { // console.log($(myUl).height(), $(this).height()); maxHeight = maxHeight > $(this).height()? maxHeight: $(this).height(); }); // uncomment here to see diff myUl.parent().height(maxHeight - marginsOfParentElement); });

It looks different in fiddle. Check it out.
