Margins

By default Subheading component has a margin bottom of spacingM (1rem). You can override the default margin bottom by specifying it explicitly on the component level by marginBottom="none" or any other value from our spacing options

Hide code
function SubheadingSpacingExample() {
  return (
    <Flex flexDirection="column">
      <Subheading marginBottom="none">
        I love Forma 36 design system.
      </Subheading>
      <Subheading marginBottom="spacingXl">
        I love Forma 36 design system.
      </Subheading>
      <Subheading marginTop="spacingS">
        I love Forma 36 design system.
      </Subheading>
    </Flex>
  );
}
function SubheadingSpacingExample() {
  return (
    <Flex flexDirection="column">
      <Subheading marginBottom="none">
        I love Forma 36 design system.
      </Subheading>
      <Subheading marginBottom="spacingXl">
        I love Forma 36 design system.
      </Subheading>
      <Subheading marginTop="spacingS">

Truncated text

Sometimes you might have to truncate the text in the Subheading component, so we provide the prop especially for that. Under the hood, what it does is add overflow: hidden and set text-overflow to ellipsis. Have a look at the example below:

Hide code
function SubheadingTruncatedExample() {
  return (
    <Flex style={{ maxWidth: '200px' }}>
      <Subheading isTruncated>
        I love Forma 36 design system, I love Forma 36 design system, I love
        Forma 36 design system
      </Subheading>
    </Flex>
  );
}
function SubheadingTruncatedExample() {
  return (
    <Flex style={{ maxWidth: '200px' }}>
      <Subheading isTruncated>
        I love Forma 36 design system, I love Forma 36 design system, I love
        Forma 36 design system
      </Subheading>
    </Flex>
  );
}
