Lumo Sizing & Spacing

Listing of Lumo style properties related to setting the size and spacing of text and components.

This page lists Lumo style properties for size and space, which you can use to apply consistent sizing and spacing across your application.

You can enable the built-in Lumo compact mode variant to reduce the font size and the sizing and spacing of all components, allowing you to place more components on the screen.

Size

Use these properties to adjust the sizing of regular elements such as buttons, text fields, and list items.

Medium is the standard size, and it’s primarily used to size buttons, text fields and list items. If you adjust the sizing, make sure to keep it large enough for touch targets.

--lumo-size-l:

Medium

Icon Size

Use the icon size custom properties to set consistent sizes for all icons across your application. The icon sizes are relative to the font size by default, meaning they scale automatically depending on the context you place them in.
