Pattern Decisions This Source Supports

Pattern Supported decision Required contract Claim note
Spinbutton / numeric stepper Choose a spinbutton for one bounded numeric value that changes in predictable increments. Increment and decrement controls change the value by the declared step and stop at the lower and upper bounds. Carbon number input guidance supports small incremental numeric changes, labels, helper text, default values, warning, error, disabled, read-only, and slider or text-input alternatives.

Evidence Role
