The attribute name can vary depending on the framework you are using. You will also find Aria attributes within this section allowing you to set Aria based roles for elements in your design. This hard work is eliminated for you using the Foundation and Bootstrap CSS frameworks as the JavaScripts are built right into the framework and can be pulled in by using Attributes.ĭepending on which framework you are using, there are many different options to build using attributes. But these types of features require communication with JavaScript, which means building sites without RSD V2 you’d have to mess with pulling those codes in yourself.
Interactive elements add a touch of professionalism and a dash of fun to any website (who doesn’t like a nav menu that transforms into a hamburger icon on small devices?). Foundation uses the second approach - by defining all base button styles on the button class and applying additional rules through new classes, contextual variations are created. Other styles can be added by extending the rules set for the same class, or by adding another class with new rules. The class (name) is the carrier of a set of styles such centered text, padding around the text and so on, that this way get applied to the element. In Foundation a button is created by adding the class button to an element. Let’s quickly go over an example using the class selector. Or to apply the design rules to a newly added element without having to redefine all these rules. This is incredibly powerful because it makes it fast and easy to give multiple elements the same appearance. This section will serve as your guide.Ī selector defines - ’selects’ - the elements to which a set of CSS rules applies. However, to get the most out of our apps - to speed up the design workflow and make it easy to maintain any projects - we do recommend to slowly start accustoming yourself with the apps selector system and predefined Foundation classes. Our responsive apps can also automatically create selectors.
If you never heard about or worked with selectors before, no worries. It will still help to give this section a quick read and, for example, familiarize yourself with the color coding system for the different selector types. See them as ‘hooks’ that tie an element to Javascript and clarifying can be used to as and to specify additional information about the element.įor those that have been working with selectors before, the workflow will feel intuitive and powerful. The data attributes play an important part in adding interactivity to a design. In case a text element is selected there will be a third button - this edit button can be used to start the text editor. The buttons below the Alt input can be used to duplicate or delete the element. The Picture dropdown we discussed before and is specific to this element, as is the input for the Alt text. In addition, the design rules associated with a predefined class can be fully customized using the CSS tools in the Style section. There is no requirement to use these predefined classes, but sometimes they come handy, especially when creating interactive components such as accordions and navigations. For example, the thumbnail class (found in Foundations) that can be seen in the screenshot adds padding and a thin border to an image.Ĭlearly this can also be done manually with the Dimensions and Border tools in Foundation Framer. The Predefined dropdown can be used to search and add classes for which the design rules have been pre-specified in the Foundation or Bootstrap framework. A selector ‘binds’ an element or group of elements to design rules defined in the Style section on the second half of the Design pane. The ability to add CSS selectors - Classes and ID - to an element is an important part of this section. The element type here is purely informative this can not be edited (right now). The image shows what the section will look like when an element of Type Picture is selected. The length of the Element section varies per Element Type.
