Text View

Text View gives a name or title to a control or group of controls, including text fields, check boxes, combo boxes, radio buttons, and drop-down menus.

Best Practices

Layout

  • Text View should be close to the control they're paired with.

Content

  • Text View should describe the purpose of the control.

  • Use sentence-style capitalization (only capitalize the first word.)

  • Be concise.

  • Use nouns or short noun phrases.

  • Don't use Text View as instructional text. For example, "Click to get started".
