How to break out of foundation row and stick to right edge of viewport

I have an example of zurb foundation grid on codepen. I'm trying to think of a way to extend a div to the right edge of the viewport but keep the left edge inline with the grid as the viewport is resized.

<div class="row">
  <div class="large-12 columns">
    <div class="my-custom-block">
      MY CUSTOM BLOCK ==> Please extend to right edge of viewport
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Update I don't mind if the solution is outside the grid and doesn't use Foundation. I just want the my component to match the start of the grid but stay flush to the right of the viewport when resized.

Solution

  • The problem is that the row class has a defined width/max-width with margin:auto on it. If you don't mind changing row to a percentage max-width you could do something like this: 

    .row {
 max-width: 62.5%;
}

.special-row {
 overflow:hidden;
 width: 100%;
 float: right;
 margin-right: 0;   
 margin-top: 0;
 margin-bottom: 0;
 //this is halfway between the 62.5% above and 100%
 max-width: 81.25%;
}
