In this article, we would like to show you how to set custom background image position using CSS.

Quick solution:

xxxxxxxxxx
 
div {
    background-position: top 10px left 20%;  /* example value */
}

Note:

The default value of background-position property is top 0 left 0 (top-left corner).

Practical example

Edit

To set the background image position, you can use custom values and various units (e.g 10px, 15em or 25%).

Below we present example cases of custom background-image position.

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
  <style>
    body {
        display: flex;
    }
​
    div {
        height: 100px;
        width: 100px;
        border: 1px solid black;
        margin: 5px;
        /* background properties */
        background-image: url('https://dirask.com/static/bucket/1631898942509-VMYrnXyYZv--image.png');
        background-size: 50px;
        background-repeat: no-repeat;
    }
