Use a callout row when

  • Several items have similar importance.
  • Each item contains a comparable amount and type of information.
  • Users benefit from seeing the items as a related group.
  • Information deserves more attention than ordinary body content.
  • Users need to notice an instruction, deadline, clarification or other important supporting information.
  • A small group of related information benefits from being visually contained.

Avoid

  • Putting most of a page inside callouts.
  • Using callouts only to make a page look more visually interesting.
  • Placing unrelated information in the same callout.
  • Using several emphasized callouts at the same level, which can make it unclear what is actually important.
  • Avoid forcing content into matching columns when the items differ significantly in complexity or length.

Available configurations and colorways

Configurations Colorways
[----] Full row important, light, main, white
[--][-] Two columns - wide left important, light, main, white
[-][--] Two columns - wide right important, light, main, white
[-][-][-] Three columns important, light, main, white

How to build callouts

  • Select the configuration and colorway that you wish to use.
  • Like normal flex row configurations, you will need one general component for each column in your configuration. The only difference is, in callouts, the columns are styled differently into "cards."
  • For example: if you select this configuration: [--][-] Two columns - wide left, you need to follow the flex row configuration component with two general components as in the screenshot to the right.
