Inline

To add the Inline component to your app:

1

import { Inline } from '@forge/react';

Description

An inline manages the horizontal layout of direct children using flexbox.

Props

Examples

The following example uses this ExampleBox component in their code blocks.

1
2
const ExampleBox = () => {
  return (
    <Box
      xcss={{
        backgroundColor: 'color.background.discovery',
        borderRadius: 'border.radius',
        borderStyle: 'solid',
        borderWidth: 'border.width',
        borderColor: 'color.border.discovery',
        padding: 'space.200'
      }}
    />
  )
}

Basic

Use an inline component to configure the layout of a group of elements horizontally. Use the given props to configure display behavior using design tokens, as shown in the more complex examples below.

const InlineExample = () => {
  return (
    <Inline>
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
    </Inline>
  );
}

Space

Control the spacing between items with the space prop.

const InlineSpaceExample = () => {
  return (
    <Inline space="space.200">
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
    </Inline>
  );
}

Row space

When content is set to wrap, the space prop applies equal spacing between rows. For a different space value between rows use the rowSpace prop.

const InlineRowSpaceExample = () => {
  return (
    <Box xcss={{ width: "200px" }}>
      <Inline space="space.100" rowSpace="space.300" shouldWrap>
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
      </Inline>
    </Box>
  )
}

Block alignment

To control the alignment of items you can use the alignBlock props which control alignment in the vertical axis respectively.

const LongBox=  () => {
  return (    
    <Box
      xcss={{
        backgroundColor: 'color.background.discovery',
        borderRadius: 'border.radius',
        borderStyle: 'solid',
        borderWidth: 'border.width',
        borderColor: 'color.border.discovery',
        padding: 'space.200',
        height: '80px'
      }}
    />
)}

const InlineStartBlock = () => {
  return (
    <Inline space="space.050" alignBlock="start">
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
      <LongBox/>
    </Inline>
  );
}

const InlineCenterBlock = () => {
  return (
    <Inline space="space.050" alignBlock="center">
      <LongBox/>
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
    </Inline>
  );
}

const InlineEndBlock = () => {
  return (
    <Inline space="space.050" alignBlock="end">
      <LongBox/>
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
    </Inline>
  );
}

const InlineBaselineBlock = () => {
  return (
    <Box xcss={{height: '100px'}}>
      <Inline space="space.050" alignBlock="baseline">
        <LongBox/>
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
      </Inline>
    </Box>
  );
}

const InlineStretchBlock = () => {
  return (
    <Inline space="space.050" alignBlock="stretch">
      <LongBox/>
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
    </Inline>
  );
}

Inline alignment

To control the alignment of items you can use the alignInline props which control alignment in the horizontal axis.

const InlineStartInline = () => {
  return (
    <Inline space="space.050" alignInline="start">
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
    </Inline>
  );
}

const InlineCenterInline = () => {
  return (
    <Inline space="space.050" alignInline="center">
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
    </Inline>
  );
}

const InlineEndInline = () => {
  return (
    <Inline space="space.050" alignInline="end">
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
    </Inline>
  );
}

Spread

Elements can be set to stay together, spaced at the given value (default behavior) or spread equally in the space available.

const InlineSpreadExample = () => {
  return (
    <Inline spread='space-between'>
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
    </Inline>
  );
}

Wrap

When the number of items goes beyond the available space, use shouldWrap to create new rows of content.

const InlineWrapExample = () => {
  return (
    <Box xcss={{ width: "200px" }}>
      <Inline space="space.100" shouldWrap>
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
        <ExampleBox />
      </Inline>
    </Box>
  );
}

Separator

For logically related elements it's possible to specify a separator character value.

const InlineSeparatorExample = () => {
  return (
    <Inline space="space.100" separator="•">
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
      <ExampleBox />
    </Inline>
  );
}
