When to use
Use this pattern when:
- Users need clarification about what items qualify for a question
- You want to provide examples of what to include or exclude
- The guidance content would clutter the form if always visible
- Users can make better decisions with reference information
Considerations
- Place the details component after the form question it relates to
- Use clear headings within the details to organize content
- Include both “examples of” and “do not include” lists when relevant
- Keep the details heading phrased as a question to indicate it provides clarification
- Ensure the expanded content is easy to scan with clear formatting
