A page consists of a header and a body.
Elements
- Header
The header includes the page title, which should be text-only without icons. Titles that are longer than the space provided slide in and fade out at the right edge of the screen. For a list page, you can also include action buttons in the header.
- Body
The body of a page contains content including the main content, images, buttons, or text.
- Text content
Text content should have margins on either side. Without these, it’s hard to read the text on a round display. When the text doesn't fit on one screen, the page scrolls vertically so users can see the full text. Refer to Scroll bar for more details.
