Stepper Horizontal Usage The following segment provides instructions for designers and developers regarding the appropriate utilization of this component in various situations. Do: Use to display progress through a sequence of logical and numbered steps. Use when the content of one step depends on an earlier step. Use short and descriptive labels for each step. Make completed steps clickable so that the user can jump back to previous steps. Be aware that the component does not handle the display of your content and you will need to manually take care of the content to be rendered beneath. Consider how you can simplify the component and use between 3-5 steps for the best user experience. Don't: Don't use long step names as it can make the component difficult to use. Don't use more than 9 steps (component has a maximum of 9) Don't forget that if a set of steps can not fit on the screen the stepper becomes horizontally scrollable and navigable with arrows.
Global settingsThemeChanges the theme of the application and any Porsche Design System component. It's possible to choose between forced theme light and dark. It's also possible to use auto, which applies light or dark theme depending on the operating system settings automatically.LightDarkAuto (sync with operating system)DirectionThe dir global attribute in HTML changes the direction of text and other content within an element. It's most often used on the <html> tag to set the entire page's direction, which is crucial for supporting languages that are written from right to left (RTL), such as Arabic and Hebrew. For example, using <html dir="rtl"> makes the entire page display from right to left, adjusting the layout and text flow accordingly.LTR (left-to-right)RTL (right-to-left)Text ZoomTo ensure accessibility and comply with WCAG 2.2 AA standards, it is mandatory for web content to support text resizing up to at least 200% without loss of content or functionality. Using relative units like rem is a best practice for achieving this, as they allow the text to scale uniformly based on the user's browser settings.100%130%150%200%
