Form controls

All generic form controls, designed for consistency

The following form controls classes are supported:

  • .label
  • .input
  • .textarea
  • .select
  • .checkbox
  • .radio
  • .button
  • .help

Each of them should be wrapped in a .control container.
When combining several controls in a form, use the .field class as a container, to keep the spacing consistent.

{{example}}
{% highlight html %}{{example}}{% endhighlight %}

Form field

The field container is a simple container for:

  • a text label
  • a form control
  • an optional helptext

It allows form fields to be spaced consistently.

{{field_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{field_example}}{% endhighlight %}

This container allows form fields to be spaced consistently.

{{fields_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{fields_example}}{% endhighlight %}

Form control

The control is a versatile container meant to enhance single form controls. Because it has the same height as a control elements, It can only contain the following elements:

  • input
  • select
  • button
  • icon
{{control_input_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{control_input_example}}{% endhighlight %}
{{control_select_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{control_select_example}}{% endhighlight %}
{{control_button_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{control_button_example}}{% endhighlight %}

Form addons

If you want to attach controls together, use the has-addons modifier on the field container:

{{addons_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{addons_example}}{% endhighlight %}

You can attach inputs, buttons, and dropdowns only.

New! 0.4.2

It can be useful to append a static button.

{{addons_static_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{addons_static_example}}{% endhighlight %}

Use the is-expanded modifier on the element you want to fill up the remaining space (in this case, the input):

{{addons_expanded_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{addons_expanded_example}}{% endhighlight %}

If you want a full width select dropdown, pair control is-expanded with select is-fullwidth.

{{addons_expanded_fullwidth_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{addons_expanded_fullwidth_example}}{% endhighlight %}

Use the has-addons-centered or the has-addons-right modifers to alter the alignment.

{{addons_center_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{addons_center_example}}{% endhighlight %}
{{addons_right_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{addons_right_example}}{% endhighlight %}

Form group

If you want to group controls together, use the is-grouped modifier on the field container.
Use the is-grouped-centered or the is-grouped-right modifers to alter the alignment.

Add the is-expanded modifier on the control element you want to fill up the remaining space with.

{{group_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{group_example}}{% endhighlight %}

Horizontal form

If you want a horizontal form control, use the is-horizontal modifier on the field container, in which you include:

  • field-label for the side label
  • field-body for the input/select/textarea container

You can use is-grouped or has-addons for the child elements.

{{horizontal_form_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{horizontal_form_example}}{% endhighlight %}

To preserve the vertical alignment of labels with each type and size of control, the .field-label comes with 4 size modifiers:

  • .is-small
  • .is-normal for any .input or .button
  • .is-medium
  • .is-large
{{field_label_example}}
{% highlight html %}{{field_label_example}}{% endhighlight %}
