A wizard is a step-by-step process, allowing users to perform a set of actions in a predefined order, in order to accomplish a goal. It may appear in a dialog or directly on the pagewithin a workspace.

...

Usage & Behavior

General guidelines

  • Wizard steps may:

    • be mandatory or non-mandatory,

    • depend on previous steps,

    • be skipped according to previous selections.

  • A Wizard has two possible modes:

    • Create mode - where the wizard is entirely new, i.e. no fields have previously been filled in. In this case, steps must be completed in the predefined order.

    • Edit mode - where fields have previously been filled in. In this case, the user may move freely between steps using the navigation bar (see below).

  • On the first step, the Back button is disabled.

  • On the last step, the primary button will show the final action that will occur (e.g. Create statistic Set).

  • Additional buttons may also be included.

  • If one of the fields contains an error, the primarybutton will be disabled and an error message will be shown (see validations and errors below).

Interaction

  • On the navigation panel, the user can only select steps that were already filled in. Selecting a step shows the content of that step and updates the navigation panel accordingly.

  • Clicking the Next button saved the data and goes to the next step. In this case, both the content and the navigation bar are updated.

  • Clicking the Back button saves the data (without triggering a mandatory field validation), and goes to the previous step.

...

  • On the last step, clicking the primary button:

    • performs the wizard action,

    • either:

      • closes the dialog (or goes to the initial page), and shows a success (or failure) toast,

      • goes to a final step showing the results.

...

  • If the wizard appears in a dialog, clicking the X button on the header will close the dialog, without saving its content. In this case, a confirmation popup may appear.

Validations and errors

  • Clicking the Next button or the primary button in the last step triggers a validation process. In case of an error (either an invalid field value or a missing mandatory field):

    • the button is disabled,

    • an error message appears next to the buttons.

    • After fixing the errors, the message disappears and the button is enabled.

  • For more informationEach step of the wizard behaves as a separate form, where both client-side and server-side validations may occur.

  • For detailed information about form validations, see Forms Validations and Errors.

  • For detailed information about specific component’s validations, see Field Validation.

...

Transitions

  • When moving between steps, a transition should be used on both the navigation bar and the content area to illustrate the flow.

...

  • The number of steps should be between 3 and 7.

  • On each step:

    • keep the wizard title short and informative,

    • include a brief explanation at the top, describing the purpose of the step,

    • set the focus to the first field,

    • provide the user with enough information to make decisions and act on them,

    • use default values where possible.

  • On the last step show a summary of what is about to be created or updated.

  • Where possible, save user input when leaving a step or in case of a wizard submission failure.
