Form

Typography

Form headings and labels should be set in sentence case with the first letter of the first word capitalized. Refer to the text input, dropdown, checkbox, radio button, toggle, and button pages for specific typography details on each component.

Structure

Forms are made up of several different components. The order in which these elements are arranged is flexible and by default the vertical spacing between elements follow the guidelines below. The vertical spacing in a default form can be adjusted to be smaller than the default depending on the use case or layout.

Forms can be one column or two. The width of each column varies based on the content and layout of the design. On mobile, forms can only have one column.

AI presence

The following are the unique styles applied to the component when the AI label is present. Unless specified, all other tokens in the component remain the same as the non-AI variant. The AI styling spec of individual components inside of the form can be found on their respective style tabs.

For more information on the AI style elements, see the Carbon for AI guidelines.
