Steps
EuiSteps presents procedural content in a numbered outline format. It is best used when presenting instructional content that must be conducted in a particular order. It requires a title
and children
to be present and will automatically increment the step number based on the initial firstStepNumber
.
Complex steps
If you need to call out a set of substeps that are not lines of code, most likely a <ol/>
, wrap the block in a <EuiSubSteps/>
.
Heading elements
To aid with accessibility and hierarchical headings, you can and should pass in a heading element to use for each step title. The example below shows that the logical heading element should be an h2
and therefore adds headingElement="h2"
to the EuiSteps component.
The style of the title will not be affected.
Steps status
Steps can optionally include status
prop that will alter the look of the number prefix. The options are incomplete
, complete
, warning
, danger
, disabled
and loading
. This is used mostly as a final step when you need to make some sort of final check.
Custom title sizes
You can set a different title size using titleSize
. If titleSize
is set in both EuiSteps and EuiStep, the latter value will override the former. Additionally, the title size xs
will automatically generate smaller steps circles.
The title size xxs
affects only the size of the accompanying unnumbered step indicator, but not the title itself.
Horizontal steps
For use when forms/setup instructions can and should be split into multiple pages. Each step should correspond to an individual page of form elements, using the status
key to denote the user's progress.
For horizontal steps, the status
key defaults to "incomplete"
and the default filled styling is reserved for indicating "current"
status.
Use the size
property to generate smaller step circles.
