v2.0.0

GOV.UK elements, release v2.0.0.

This release has the following breaking changes:

1. You will need to define a $path for your image assets

The images path override has been removed from the helpers partial.

This will result in broken background images where the file-url function from the url-helpers partial in the frontend toolkit is used.

If you are not using Rails or Compass, then you will need to define $path in your main application stylesheet. There is an example of setting $path here.

2. External link icons have been deprecated

This version deprecates external link styles. If your service has user research that indicates that external links are useful (or not) then we’d like to hear from you either on Slack, digital-service-designers or opening an issue.

Also included in this release:

• The GOV.UK elements application has been updated to use v4.16.1 of the govuk frontend toolkit.

By including the ShimLinksWithButtonRole.js from the govuk_frontend_toolkit, space key activation is added to links with a role of button, you can see this in action on the buttons page.

• Using an .error class on a parent element will only apply a red border to the first child .form-control.
• The text for full-width buttons (seen at smaller screen widths) is centred
• All JS has been linted using StandardJS.

v1.2.2

• Bump govuk frontend toolkit to 4.14.4 (PR #278)
• Add a .column-full class (PR #270)
• Add a file upload example (PR #268)
• Remove the blue outline from the main content area (PR #265)
• Fix legend text wrapping in IE (PR #248)

Adjust form element spacing to be more consistent

• Consistent spacing underneath block labels and toggled content (PR #229)
• Remove underlines from abbreviations in Firefox (PR #241)

v1.2.0

1.2.0

Things you need to know:

If you are using the GOV.UK elements _icons.scss file, the path to the icons from the front end toolkit has changed.

These are no longer copied to a subfolder called /icons/.

It is expected that the folder structure for assets is the same as that defined by the govuk_frontend_toolkit.

The url_helpers file has been uncommented in the list of files imported from the govuk_frontend_toolkit.

GOV.UK elements also defines $path, in url_helpers.scss. You may want to override this for your application.

If you're using <details>, you'll need to include the _shame.scss file to get the fix for the summary arrow in Firefox Nightly and Firefox Developer Edition.

Changes included in this release:

• Fix path for rails and node environments (PR #234)
  • Import the govuk_frontend_toolkit url-helpers partial
  • If image-url is not defined (if we are not in a Rails environment),
    then set a path to /public/images
• Don't copy the govuk_frontend_toolkit's images into an icons folder
  (PR #223)
• Fix the summary arrow in recent Firefox (PR #227)
• Remove button padding overriding the govuk_frontend_toolkit (PR #230)
• Add MIT License (PR #236)
• Create latest release branch as an alias of the latest release (PR
  #232)
