How to set containerStyle?

[tbrockmoeller]

I'm wondering how to apply the parameter containerStyle correctly.

NgxMasonryOptions accepts only a string. Can you tell me an example string that should work here, please? It does not work for me.

If I check https://masonry.desandro.com/options.html#containerstyle, there should be also objects possible. Is there a reason for excepting only strings?

Hi, yes you're right. It should take objects. I'll make the change in the next release. However I would recommend changing the style from the angular side. I'm not sure about your use case but you should be able to get the layout you want without using the containerStyle

By applying a class name directly to the ngx-masonry element also works for me.

Ok, but wasn't this issue closed a bit to fast, because the reported problem is still not solved?

Well, I believe the containerStyle option should not be the preferred way to set element style in Angular. You should always try using the template or renderer first.
