Configuration
Title and Texts come with configuration options that make it easy to adapt their appearance and behavior to fit any use case or align with your company’s branding.
Flexible display elements
The title, text, overline, line and icon can be toggled on or off individually, but at least one must remain visible to ensure a valid button module.
Content
While all content is edited inline, you can enable one of three visual elements to enhance the Title and Text module. These elements help bring more personality, clarity, or branding to your content:
Emoji: Add expressiveness and a friendly tone, making content feel more engaging and human.
Icon: Choose from four built-in icon libraries that cover a range of styles, from playful to professional, to suit different contexts.
Logo: Apply approved company logos managed through the Optics Styleguide. Confluence admins can upload, organize, and reuse logos consistently across buttons and other modules.
Styling options
Styling options allow customization of colors, and size of all elements enabled.
Color: Uses only the accent color defined in the Optics Styleguide. Changing the accent color updates all related visual elements, including the icon, overline, and line.
Size: You can choose from predefined sizes, Small (S), Medium (M), and Large (L), or define a custom size within a range from 1 to 100.
