This icon needs to be always the outline styled version to avoid visual artifacts.

Important!

In the examples of the following explanations we are applying a style to the content of the badge to better visualizing the positioning of the badge in relation to the content.

Badged content

config

type

For the z-badge component, the type parameter establishes the type of content that the badge is going to be showing. The possibles variants are: dot, icon, text.

  • The z-badge component will use the dot configuration as default, matching the dot variant of the specifications. This is the default value.
Badged content

  • The textvariant will use config="text" and will receive the text to be shown in another attribute called text. If not text is provided, the badge will look like the dot base variant.
Badged content

  • The iconvariant will use config="icon" and will receive the icon to be shown in another attribute called icon. Make sure that you use the line version of the icons for the Badge. Otherwise, the icon won't be shown to avoid misusage of the component.
Badged content
style

The first modifier is style, that can receive the value outline to make the badge separate from the content by a line that matches the background. This uses the --z-bg variable, so it's important that this is changed within the context.

Badged contentBadged content
size

The second modifier is size, which can have the values xs, s, m (default), or l. Must be always at the end and the z-badge attribute. The type can be skipped if the value is dot.
