Design system
Clearer text, safer deletes, a calmer sign-in
The first release of the design-system program fixes small defects that cost people attention every day.
- Secondary text is easier to read in both themes: 23 color pairs that fell below the WCAG AA threshold now pass.
- Deleting a chat message asks before it deletes.
- Chat shows a dot on the application rail when a conversation in your Inbox is unread.
- The Inbox shows the filters that are on as chips beside its title; click a chip to switch that filter off.
- The sign-in page no longer says “Required field” before you have typed anything.
- The buttons of the application rail have names for screen readers, and the workspace switcher and the account menu open from the keyboard.
- An issue’s start date is labeled “Start date”. It used to say “Due date”.
- Help & Support shows the version and the build, ready to copy into a problem report.
- A page that fails to start shows a plain message and a Reload button instead of a technical error.
- Video rooms (Office) and guest sign-in are switched off: nothing we stand behind sat behind them.
