Text

Text includes all the written, language-based elements of the interface. This includes the labels used to represent the organizational model, the names of the input and navigational controls contained for Viewing and Navigation, and the alert messages and help text used for User Assistance.

Consider the following when dealing with text:

• Use the appropriate [typography].
• Keep wording consistent and easy to understand.
• Understand when and where to apply capitalization.
• Apply standard control labels in your app.
• Use static text for main instruction and supplemental information.
• Account for localization of your project.
