Bottom Sheet

The Bottom Sheet element is a slide-up panel that appears from the bottom of the screen when triggered by a button click. It references another page for its content, allowing you to build rich overlay experiences.


Overview

Bottom Sheet provides a modal-like panel that slides up from the bottom edge. It is commonly used on mobile-style interfaces but works on both web and mobile platforms.

Common uses:

  • Action menus and option pickers
  • Detail views triggered from a list
  • Quick-edit forms
  • Confirmation dialogs with rich content

Adding a Bottom Sheet

  1. Open the Website Builder
  2. Find Bottom Sheet in the Elements panel (under Tools)
  3. Drag it onto your page
  4. Configure its properties in the General Tab

Note: This element works on both web and mobile applications.

Best Practices

  1. Keep content concise - Bottom sheets work best for focused, short interactions

  2. Always show a handle - The handle gives users a visual cue that the panel is draggable or dismissible

  3. Use backdrop for focus - The backdrop prevents interaction with the page behind and signals a modal context

  4. Avoid auto-open on every visit - Reserve auto-open for one-time prompts or onboarding flows
