Forms
Organization
GUIDELINES
- User activated inline help: This system allows users to access help text only when they want and need it. To reveal the text the user needs to click on a trigger which is represented by an icon.
- Length: Help text should be short and easy to read, so it’s not advisable to exceed 100 words, as it gets to much information for users to handle.
- Tooltips: Should only appear to explain the user why a particular information is needed, when unfamiliar data is asked or to assure that users’ info is secured.
- Iconography: Tooltip icon should be placed next to the field label and not the input field. Upon click, the tooltip should appear above its icon. This will prevent shifting content and leave users disoriented.
- Help text: Avoid the idea of an instruction manual using help text next to fields sparingly. Use help text only when unfamiliar data is asked of users. Make it short and easy to read.
- Accessibility: Tooltips can be activated on click or using the TAB key and closed by clicking outside the box or pressing the down key on the keyboard.
- The forms should be grouped when necessary to organised information from the same “category”.
- Each category should be divided by a line with 50px of padding between the top item and the bottom item. If it’s section title, use 70px from divider to baseline.
- When necessary use information icon which will trigger tooltips.
- When needed, radio buttons and checkboxes can be stacked into columns, as long as they respect the Style Guide for Grid System.
- Call-to-Action button must be left justified with the form, highlighting a clear path to completion.
- Call-to-Action button should be active only when all required fields are filled.
Validation & Feedback
GUIDELINES
- In some cases it’s useful for users to have suggestions of valid information to input on the fields. These suggestions would appear as users are typing the first words.
Valid
- Happens when users insert valid information. This message is momentary and lasts 2 seconds. No copy message required, the positive feedback is implicit.
Warning
- Appears after users pass by an important field without filling it. This box pushes the conten down. This can also happen in cases when users don’t insert the a valid answer - incorrect email structure for example.
Specific error
- “Specific” error messages refer to at least 2 errors that occurs in specific input fields. Appears after users click the primary action button on the form. This is a backend validation message. This box pushes the content down the page. Alignment depends of available screen real-estate.
Generic error
- When filling a form if more than 3 fields have an error than it’s considered generic. Those error messages are displayed in a single column next to the fields in order to avoid obstruct the legibility of the form. This makes the layout less aggressive.
