Heading

The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.

rx.heading("The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.")

Use the as_ prop to change the heading level. This prop is purely semantic and does not change the visual appearance.

Level 1

Level 2

Level 3

rx.flex(
    rx.heading("Level 1", as_="h1"),
    rx.heading("Level 2", as_="h2"),
    rx.heading("Level 3", as_="h3"),
    direction="column",
    spacing="3",
)

Use the size prop to control the size of the heading. The prop also provides correct line height and corrective letter spacing—as text size increases, the relative line height and letter spacing decrease

Use the align prop to set text alignment.

Left-aligned

Center-aligned

Right-aligned

rx.flex(
    rx.heading("Left-aligned", align="left"),
    rx.heading("Center-aligned", align="center"),
    rx.heading("Right-aligned", align="right"),
    direction="column",
    spacing="3",
    width="100%",
)

Use the trim prop to trim the leading space at the start, end, or both sides of the text.

Without Trim

With Trim

rx.flex(
    rx.heading(
        "Without Trim",
        trim="normal",
        style={
            "background": "var(--gray-a2)",
            "border_top": "1px dashed var(--gray-a7)",
            "border_bottom": "1px dashed var(--gray-a7)",
        },
    ),
    rx.heading(
        "With Trim",
        trim="both",
        style={
            "background": "var(--gray-a2)",
            "border_top": "1px dashed var(--gray-a7)",
            "border_bottom": "1px dashed var(--gray-a7)",
        },
    ),
    direction="column",
    spacing="3",
)

Trimming the leading is useful when dialing in vertical spacing in cards or other “boxy” components. Otherwise, padding looks larger on top and bottom than on the sides.

Without trim

The goal of typography is to relate font size, line height, and line width in a proportional way that maximizes beauty and makes reading easier and more pleasant.

With trim

The goal of typography is to relate font size, line height, and line width in a proportional way that maximizes beauty and makes reading easier and more pleasant.
