description: purpose: > Glyphs map a generally known concept or symbol to a specific concept in ILIAS.Glyphs are used when space is scarce. composition: > A glyph is a typographical character that represents something else. As any other typographical character, they can be manipulated by regular CSS. If hovered they change their background to indicate possible interactions. effect: > Glyphs act as trigger for some action such as opening a certain Overlay type or as shortcut. rivals: icon: > Standalone Icons are not interactive. Icons can be in an interactive container however. Icons merely serve as additional hint of the functionality described by some title. Glyphs are visually distinguished from object icons: they are monochrome. background: > "In typography, a glyph is an elemental symbol within an agreed set of symbols, intended to represent a readable character for the purposes of writing and thereby expressing thoughts, ideas and concepts." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glyph)Lidwell states that such symbols are used "to improve the recognition and recall of signs and controls".rules: usage: 1: Glyphs MUST NOT be used in content titles. 2: > Glyphs MUST be used for cross-sectional functionality such as mail for example and NOT for representing objects. 3: > Glyphs SHOULD be used for very simple tasks that are repeated at many places throughout the system. 4: > Services such as mail MAY be represented by a glyph AND an icon. style: 1: > All Glyphs MUST be taken from the Bootstrap Glyphicon Halflings set. Exceptions MUST be approved by the JF. accessibility: 1: > The functionality triggered by the Glyph must be indicated to screen readers with by the attribute aria-label or aria-labelledby attribute.

button () | ||||
description: purpose: > Buttons trigger interactions that change the system’s status.Usually Buttons are contained in an Input Collection. The Toolbar is the main exception to this rule, since buttons in the Toolbar might also perform view changes. composition: > Button is a clickable, graphically obtrusive control element. It can bear text. effect: > On-click, the action indicated by the button is carried out. rivals: glyph: > Glyphs are used if the enclosing Container Collection can not provide enough space for textual information or if such an information would clutter the screen. links: > Links are used to trigger Interactions that do not change the systems status. They are usually contained inside a Navigational Collection.background: > Wording rules have been inspired by the iOS Human Interface Guidelines (UI-Elements->Controls->System Button)Style rules have been inspired from the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines->Buttons.rules: usage: 1: > Buttons MUST NOT be used inside a Textual Paragraph. interaction: 1: > A Button SHOULD trigger an action. Only in Toolbars, Buttons MAY also change the view. 2: > If an action is temporarily not available, Buttons MUST be disabled by setting as type 'disabled'. style: 1: > If Text is used inside a Button, the Button MUST be at least six characters wide. wording: 1: > The caption of a Button SHOULD contain no more than two words. 2: > The wording of the button SHOULD describe the action the button performs by using a verb or a verb phrase. 3: > Every word except articles, coordinating conjunctions and prepositions of four or fewer letters MUST be capitalized. 4: > For standard events such as saving or canceling the existing standard terms MUST be used if possible: Save, Cancel, Delete, Cut, Copy. 5: > There are cases where a non-standard label such as “Send Mail” for saving and sending the input of a specific form might deviate from the standard. These cases MUST however specifically justified. accessibility: 1: > DOM elements of type "button" MUST be used to properly identify an element as a Button if there is no good reason to do otherwise. 2: > Button DOM elements MUST either be of type "button", of type "a" accompanied with the aria-role “Button” or input along with the type attribute “button” or "submit".
