I have a h2 element in HTML and I want to manipulate the ::before pseudo element position if the H2 aligned to center. I'm looking for something like this:

$(this + '::before').css({
    'left': ($(this).width() - x) / 2
});

Is there any working solution?

jQuery cannot access pseudo elements directly in the manner you're attempting. – Rory McCrossan Sep 21 '18 at 15:03
Okay, and is there any way to manipulate with native JavaScript? – netdjw Sep 21 '18 at 16:37
