Description

The FormStatus is a simple component meant for displaying the status of a form ( displaying form errors, messages etc. ) The FormStatus component should be positioned relative to the form or form input to which it referring to.

Also, the FormStatus is used inside of many other form components.

The FormStatus component cooperates together with the GlobalStatus component to summaries and have several status messages in once place.

Use the FormStatus icons only

  • InfoIcon info
  • WarnIcon error
  • ErrorIcon error
  • MarketingIcon marketing
import { InfoIcon } from '@dnb/eufemia/components/FormStatus


render(<InfoIcon />)

... or in combination with the Icon component. Have a look at this example.

Width alignment

In order to enhance accessibility (readability), the FormStatus will align its width to a linked component. That means, if the FormStatus is build into the Input component, it will inherit the width of the input.

The min-width is set to be 12rem. Use CSS min-width or max-width to set a custom (manual) width.
