Search Input

Recipe CSS

This is the exact CSS your kit ships for Search Input — token-driven, so it re-themes with every knob. Get it (and the rest) from the configurator's Use kit panel.

/* === SearchInput (#7) ===
 * Best-practice layout: padding column at the start anchors the magnifier
 * icon (14px, large enough to read at body size), field flexes between,
 * end column holds the optional kbd hint + clear button. The clear is a
 * ghost icon-button — transparent until hover (state-hover overlay), since
 * a tinted bg against the surface-2 input chrome looked muddy. */
