Props ​

PropTypeDescription
accessibilityLabelstringA label that describes the purpose of the modal. When set, it will be announced to users using assistive technologies and will provide them with more context. This overrides the heading prop for screen readers.
headingstringA title that describes the content of the modal.
padding"base" | "none"Adjust the padding around the modal content. base: applies padding that is appropriate for the element. none: removes all padding from the element. This can be useful when elements inside the modal need to span to the edge of the modal. For example, a full-width image. In this case, rely on box with a padding of 'base' to bring back the desired padding for the rest of the content.
size"base" | "small-100" | "small" | "large" | "large-100"The size of the modal component, controlling its width and height. Larger sizes provide more space for content while smaller sizes are more compact.
