Paper (design)

A Paper exists to group content and present it on a relative depth from where it resides on.

Usage

Use a paper when you want a depth difference between the page and your wrapped component(s). Design wise you can relate this with containers in a design tool e.g. Frames in Figma.

Options

Elevation

Ranging from level -1 to 3, a drop shadow increases the paper's relative depth.

Elevation -1

Elevation 0

Elevation 1

Elevation 2

Border radius

Every paper can be set with a border radius value from Chameleon Design Tokens. The default value is borderRadius1 which corresponds with 2px.

Border radius 0

Border radius 1

Border radius 4

Hoverable

To indicate to users that a paper has an action or a link bound to it, it can have a hoverable behaviour. This will increase the paper's depth when a user mouses over it.

When a paper is hoverable, the box shadow automatically increases with one level.
