Modals are windows used for displaying prompts and subtasks without losing context of the parent application.
Modals are composed of several parts. To render a modal, include a modal backdrop, modal header, modal body, and modal footer (optional).
Modal content
<div class="a-backdrop">
<div class="a-modal">
<div class="a-modal__header">
<h3 class="a-modal__title">Modal Title</h3>
<button class="a-btn -icon -close">
<div class="a-btn__content">
<i class="a-icon icon-x"></i>
</div>
</button>
</div>
<div class="a-modal__content">
<p class="-text -m--0">Modal content</p>
</div>
<div class="a-modal__footer">
<button class="a-btn">Cancel</button>
<button class="a-btn -primary -ml--2">Save</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
Enable scrolling if the height of the modal's content is larger than the modal's content container.
A max-height
must be defined on a-modal__content
.
Use max-height utility classes such as -mh--400
or -mh--480
, or define your own value.
