Modal variations

Modals can be opened or closed with a isOpen prop.

Basic modal with a form

The Modal has a curtain (backdrop) at medium and large breakpoints. It appears fullscreen on small devices.

This modal has a sticky footer that is always visible. The sticky footer is set by using the isSticky prop on the ModalFooter component.

This modal does not have a default, non-sticky footer. You’ll have to scroll to view the button within the ModalFooter.

Narrow modal

It’s possible to render narrow modals with the width prop.

Modal with fixed height

To keep the height of the modal (including top row with close button and sticky footer) fixed such that it remains consistent as modal content changes, you can apply heightAboveSmall prop. It only applies when the viewport is above the small breakpoint; modals always stretch 100% of the viewport under small breakpoint. When used with <ModalFooter isSticky>, the modal will not expand beyond the height of the viewport to maintain a sticky footer (i.e. the modal’s height will be the max of the provided height and the viewport height).

Full bleed modal

You can use the ModalContentFullBleed component to create a section of modal content that visually reaches the edge of the modal. This is useful for setting your own background color or section borders, for example.

Warning

This component provides the same amount of padding as the modal itself, so it can't be used to render child elements that touch the edge of the modal – only to set the background or other styles. This is to make sure that everything in the modal has consistent padding at all breakpoints. Interfaces like horizontally scrolling lists that reach the edge of their container are not suitable for use inside a modal, and you should work with your designer to find an alternative.

ModalAnimatedWrapper

ModalAnimatedWrapper is an exported component that we export for developers that want access to Modal without padding and a close button. We export it as a named export instead of creating a hasNoPadding prop partly to discourage the use of Modal without padding.

This component uses ModalCurtain and includes the backdrop, transition, and white modal wrapper that is available at a few widths.
