Use the included text-color
attribute to recreate the small secondary heading text from Bootstrap 3.
<template>
<b-h level="3">
Fancy display heading
<BInline
tag="small"
text-color="muted"
>
With faded secondary text
</BInline>
</b-h>
</template>
Traditional heading elements are designed to work best in the meat of your page content. When you need a heading to stand out, consider using a display-headings
attribute —a larger, slightly more opinionated heading style.
<template>
<b-h
level="1"
display-headings="1"
>
Display 1
</b-h>
<b-h
level="1"
display-headings="2"
>
Display 2
</b-h>
<b-h
level="1"
display-headings="3"
>
Display 3
</b-h>
<b-h
level="1"
display-headings="4"
>
Display 4
</b-h>
<b-h
level="1"
display-headings="5"
>
Display 5
</b-h>
<b-h
level="1"
display-headings="6"
>
Display 6
</b-h>
</template>
Make a paragraph stand out by adding lead

Styling for common inline HTML5 elements.
You can use the mark tag to highlight text.
This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.
This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.
This line of text will render as underlined.
This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.
This line rendered as bold text.
This line rendered as italicized text.
<template>
<b-p>
You can use the mark tag to
<mark>highlight</mark>
text.
</b-p>
<b-p>
<del>This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.</del>
</b-p>
<b-p>
<s>This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.</s>
</b-p>
<b-p>
<u>This line of text will render as underlined.</u>
</b-p>
<b-p>
<small>This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.</small>
</b-p>
<b-p><strong>This line rendered as bold text.</strong></b-p>
<b-p><em>This line rendered as italicized text.</em></b-p>
</template>
Beware that those tags should be used for semantic purpose:
mark
represents text which is marked or highlighted for reference or notation purposes.small
represents side-comments and small print, like copyright and legal text.<s>
represents element that are no longer relevant or no longer accurate.<u>
represents a span of inline text which should be rendered in a way that indicates that it has a non-textual annotation.If you want to style your text, you should use the following classes instead:
mark
will apply the same styles as mark
.small
will apply the same styles as small
.textDecoration = "underline"
will apply the same styles as <u>
.textDecoration = "line-through"
will apply the same styles as <s>
.While not shown above, feel free to use <b>
and <i>
in HTML5.
<b>
is meant to highlight words or phrases without conveying additional importance, while <i>
is mostly for voice, technical terms, etc.
You can use the mark tag to highlight text.
This line of text is meant to be treated as no longer accurate.
This line of text is meant to be treated as deleted text.
This line of text will render as underlined.
This line of text is meant to be treated as fine print.

Remove the default list-style
and left margin on list items (immediate children only).
This only applies to immediate children list items, meaning you will need to add the class for any nested lists as well.
<template>
<List unstyled>
<ListItem>This is a ListItemst.</ListItem>
<ListItem>It appears completely unstyled.</ListItem>
<ListItem>Structurally, it's still a ListItemst.</ListItem>
<ListItem>However, this style only appListItemes to immediate child elements.</ListItem>
<ListItem>
Nested ListItemsts:
<List>
<ListItem>are unaffected by this style</ListItem>
<ListItem>will still show a bullet</ListItem>
<ListItem>and have appropriate left margin</ListItem>
</List>
</ListItem>
<ListItem>This may still come in handy in some situations.</ListItem>
</List>
</template>
Remove a list's bullets and apply some light margin
with a combination of two classes, inline
attribute.
<template>
<List inline>
<ListItem inline>
This is a list item.
</ListItem>
<ListItem inline>
And another one.
</ListItem>
<ListItem inline>
But they're displayed inline.
</ListItem>
</List>
</template>
Align terms and descriptions horizontally by using our grid system's predefined classes (or semantic mixins).
For longer terms, you can optionally add a text-truncate
attribute to truncate the text with an ellipsis.
Definition for the term.
And some more placeholder definition text.
<template>
<b-dl>
<b-dt col="sm-3">
Description lists
</b-dt>
<b-dd col="sm-9">
A description list is perfect for defining terms.
</b-dd>
<b-dt col="sm-3">
Term
</b-dt>
<b-dd col="sm-9">
<b-p>Definition for the term.</b-p>
<b-p>And some more placeholder definition text.</b-p>
</b-dd>
<b-dt col="sm-3">
Another term
</b-dt>
<b-dd col="sm-9">
This definition is short, so no extra paragraphs or anything.
</b-dd>
<b-dt
col="sm-3"
text-truncate
>
Truncated term is truncated
</b-dt>
<b-dd col="sm-9">
This can be useful when space is tight. Adds an ellipsis at the end.
</b-dd>
<b-dt col="sm-3">
Nesting
</b-dt>
<b-dd col="sm-9">
<b-dl>
<b-dt col="sm-4">
Nested definition list
</b-dt>
<b-dd col="sm-8">
I heard you like definition lists. Let me put a definition list inside
your definition list.
