• The toolbar is located on top of a data container (e.g. Data table) with the same width as the container.

• Where possible the toolbar can be divided into 2 distinct types of operations:

  • Left-aligned, actions that impact the data (e.g. delete).

  • Right-aligned, actions impacting the view of the data (e.g. print, search, change view mode)

    • In case all the components are only for viewing the data, they will be left-aligned..

Content

  • Dialog buttons, are not used within a toolbar.

• Optional, a mini-hamburger menu button” (icon-mini-hamburger-menu) can be used to aggregate multiple actions in an Action Menus .

• A toolbar can also include information such as counters and statuses (see example in data table image above).
