Divider_Stylesheet.yaml

A thin line that separates content.

The look of Divider (in Dividers). How component stylesheets work.

The stylesheet

# Divider: the look of each part of the component, by the part's id.
# A value in {{ }} is one of the component's parameters.
styles:
  - id: root
    style:
      width: "{{ width }}"
      height: "{{ height }}"
      background: outline_variant

How it is tied to the component

Divider_Component.yaml holds the structure: the parts, each with an id. This file holds the look: each rule's id names a part, and its style is what that part looks like. When a view uses component: Divider, Tesserae fills in the parameters (a value like "{{ width }}" becomes the width the view passed), picks a branch of any if:, and puts each rule under the style the part already has, so a part's own style: always wins.

The parts

root (Rect)

Field	Value	What it does
width	the width parameter	Pixels, auto (its content's size, or stretched), or a percentage of the parent such as 50%.
height	the height parameter	Pixels, auto (its content's size, or stretched), or a percentage of the parent such as 50%.
background	outline_variant	Its fill: a theme role such as surface, #RRGGBB, any CSS colour, or a gradient such as linear-gradient(90deg, primary, tertiary).

What it makes

With width: 120, height: 40, each part's style is:

root: {width: 120, height: 40, background: outline_variant}

Changing it

Put a Divider_Stylesheet.yaml next to your views. Its rules go over this file's, field by field:

styles:
  - id: root
    style: {background: tertiary}
