Navs
Nav
A navigation pane (Nav) provides links to the main areas of an app or site, and can also be used as a TreeView to show parent-child data in a tree. It renders a hierarchy of any depth, keeps its selection in sync with the current URL (exact, prefix, wildcard or regex) or leaves it to the app, groups items under headers, shrinks to a rail of icons, and is fully operable from the keyboard with the tree-view keys.

Accessibility
Keyboard: Tab moves between the items, ↑ ↓ Home End walk the visible ones, → opens a branch and then steps into it, ← closes it and then steps out, * opens every sibling, and typing jumps to the next item starting with it. Collapse Navs: the branch that holds the current page takes the look of the selection, so the reader never loses it.

CSS variables
The public custom properties this component reads off its root, for what no parameter covers.
Every variable is read with a fallback and never declared by the component, so it inherits like any other custom property:
set one on :root (or in a [bit-theme] block) to restyle every instance, on any ancestor to restyle the ones inside it,
or on the Style of one instance to restyle it - and any instance nested inside it, which inherits the value too; a parameter changes one alone,
as does the real CSS property on the instance's Style / Styles when that property does not inherit (opacity: 1 keeps
one disabled instance undimmed without undimming a disabled one inside it), while an inherited one such as color or
font-family also reaches the nested instances that do not set it themselves. Leave a variable unset and the component
falls back to the theme token beside it.
BitNav CSS variables
| Name | Default value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| --bit-Nav-color | --bit-clr-fg-pri | Text and chevron color of an item at rest. |
| --bit-Nav-icon-color | --bit-clr-pri | Icon color of an item at rest, and of a hovered, pressed or selected one its own variable leaves unset (and of one under an explicit surface Accent). The Color parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-description-color | --bit-clr-fg-ter | Description color of an item at rest, and of a hovered, pressed or selected one its own variable leaves unset (and of one under an explicit surface Accent). |
| --bit-Nav-disabled-color | --bit-clr-fg-dis | Text, icon, description and chevron color of a disabled item (or of every item of a disabled nav). |
| --bit-Nav-hover-background | --bit-clr-bg-pri-hover | Background of a hovered item (pointer devices only); the selected item, and a collapsed branch that holds it, takes --bit-Nav-selected-hover-background instead. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-hover-color | --bit-clr-fg-pri | Text and chevron color of a hovered item; the selected item, and a collapsed branch that holds it, takes --bit-Nav-selected-hover-color instead. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-hover-icon-color | --bit-Nav-icon-color, then --bit-clr-pri | Icon color of a hovered item (pointer devices only); the selected item, and a collapsed branch that holds it, takes --bit-Nav-selected-hover-icon-color instead. The Accent and Color parameters win over it. |
| --bit-Nav-hover-description-color | --bit-Nav-description-color, then --bit-clr-fg-ter | Description color of a hovered item (pointer devices only); the selected item, and a collapsed branch that holds it, takes --bit-Nav-selected-hover-description-color instead. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-pressed-background | --bit-clr-bg-pri-active | Background of an item while it is pressed (the one feedback a tap gets on a touch screen); the selected item, and a collapsed branch that holds it, takes --bit-Nav-selected-pressed-background instead. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-pressed-color | --bit-Nav-hover-color, then --bit-clr-fg-pri (on a touch screen --bit-clr-fg-pri) | Text and chevron color of an item while it is pressed; the selected item, and a collapsed branch that holds it, takes --bit-Nav-selected-hover-color instead. Where the pointer can hover it falls back on the hovered color; on a touch screen, where no hover applies, on the default. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-pressed-icon-color | --bit-Nav-hover-icon-color, then --bit-Nav-icon-color, then --bit-clr-pri (on a touch screen --bit-Nav-icon-color, then --bit-clr-pri) | Icon color of an item while it is pressed; the selected item, and a collapsed branch that holds it, takes --bit-Nav-selected-hover-icon-color instead. Where the pointer can hover it falls back on the hovered icon color; on a touch screen, where no hover applies, on the one at rest. The Accent and Color parameters win over it. |
| --bit-Nav-pressed-description-color | --bit-Nav-hover-description-color, then --bit-Nav-description-color, then --bit-clr-fg-ter (on a touch screen --bit-Nav-description-color, then --bit-clr-fg-ter) | Description color of an item while it is pressed; the selected item, and a collapsed branch that holds it, takes --bit-Nav-selected-hover-description-color instead. Where the pointer can hover it falls back on the hovered description color; on a touch screen, where no hover applies, on the one at rest. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-selected-background | --bit-clr-bg-pri-active | Background of the selected item, and of a collapsed branch that holds it. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-selected-color | --bit-clr-fg-pri | Text and chevron color of the selected item, and of a collapsed branch that holds it. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-selected-icon-color | --bit-Nav-icon-color, then --bit-clr-pri | Icon color of the selected item, and of a collapsed branch that holds it - the one to move with --bit-Nav-selected-background when that is a vivid fill. The Accent and Color parameters win over it: an explicit Accent draws the icon in its own colors on its own fill (a semantic one in its on-color, a surface one in the icon color at rest), so a value set for the theme's fill never lands on the Accent's. |
| --bit-Nav-selected-description-color | --bit-Nav-description-color, then --bit-clr-fg-ter | Description color of the selected item, and of a collapsed branch that holds it. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-selected-hover-background | --bit-Nav-selected-background with 8% of --bit-Nav-selected-color mixed in | Background of the selected item, and of a collapsed branch that holds it, while it is hovered (pointer devices only). The selection gives its feedback on its own fill rather than taking the hovered one every other item gets, so the item just picked - which the pointer is still on right after the click - never looks unselected. Where the browser has no color-mix it keeps the selected background. The Accent parameter wins over it: an explicit Accent mixes its own on-color into its own selected fill. |
| --bit-Nav-selected-pressed-background | --bit-Nav-selected-hover-background with 8% of --bit-Nav-selected-hover-color mixed in | Background of the selected item, and of a collapsed branch that holds it, while it is pressed - on a touch screen too, where it is the one feedback a tap gets. Where the browser has no color-mix it falls back on --bit-Nav-selected-hover-background. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-selected-hover-color | --bit-Nav-selected-color, then --bit-clr-fg-pri | Text and chevron color of the selected item, and of a collapsed branch that holds it (its group header included), while it is hovered or pressed - the one to move with --bit-Nav-selected-hover-background when the selected color does not read on that fill. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-selected-hover-icon-color | --bit-Nav-selected-icon-color, then --bit-Nav-icon-color, then --bit-clr-pri | Icon color of the selected item, and of a collapsed branch that holds it, while it is hovered or pressed. The Accent and Color parameters win over it. |
| --bit-Nav-selected-hover-description-color | --bit-Nav-selected-description-color, then --bit-Nav-description-color, then --bit-clr-fg-ter | Description color of the selected item, and of a collapsed branch that holds it, while it is hovered or pressed. The Accent parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-indicator-color | --bit-clr-pri | Color of the leading bar of the selected item. The Color parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-indicator-width | --bit-shp-brd-width-thick | Thickness of the leading bar of the selected item; 0 removes it. In forced colors (Windows contrast themes) the bar is the one mark of the selection left, so there it is never thinner than --bit-shp-brd-width-thick. |
| --bit-Nav-item-radius | --bit-shp-radius-control | Corner radius of an item. |
| --bit-Nav-item-min-height | spacing(6) (48px) | Smallest height of an item. The Size parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-item-padding | 4px (spacing(0.5)) | Padding of an item; the indentation of the levels is added to its start. |
| --bit-Nav-item-gap | 0 | Room between two items, at every level. |
| --bit-Nav-font-size | --bit-tpg-fs-sm | Text size of an item. The Size parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-icon-size | --bit-siz-icon-md | Icon size of an item and of a group header. The Size parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-description-font-size | --bit-tpg-fs-xs | Text size of the description of an item. The Size parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-header-color | --bit-clr-fg-pri | Text color of a group header (Grouped render type). |
| --bit-Nav-header-font-size | --bit-tpg-fs-lg | Text size of a group header. The Size parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-header-min-height | spacing(5.5) (44px) | Smallest height of a group header; one with a description grows past it. The Size parameter wins over it. |
| --bit-Nav-header-border-color | --bit-clr-brd-pri | Color of the rule under a group header. |
| --bit-Nav-header-hover-background | --bit-clr-bg-pri-hover | Background of a hovered group header (pointer devices only); a collapsed one that holds the selected item takes --bit-Nav-selected-hover-background instead. |
| --bit-Nav-separator-color | --bit-clr-brd-sec | Color of a separator item. |
| --bit-Nav-badge-color | --bit-clr-err-text | Text color of the badge of an item; it keeps it in every state of the item. |

API
Every parameter, public member, sub-class and enum this component exposes.
BitNav parameters
| Name | Type | Default value | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Accent | BitColor? | null | The accent color of the nav: the background of the hovered and the selected item. A background, foreground or border role tints the item, a semantic role fills it and recolors its content. An explicit value wins over the --bit-Nav-* hover, pressed and selected variables; left unset, the nav takes the PrimaryBackground accent unless they say otherwise. |
| AllExpanded | bool | false | Expands all items when they are first rendered. Items that arrive later are expanded as they arrive, while the items already on screen keep whatever the user has expanded or collapsed in the meantime. |
| AutoReorderOptions | bool | false | Keeps the order of the options (what the arrow keys, Home, End and type-ahead walk), at every level of the tree, in sync with their markup order when options are added, removed or reordered after the first render. Opt-in, since it reads the DOM order back after each change. |
| ChevronDownIcon | BitIconInfo? | null | The icon for the chevron-down element of each nav item. Takes precedence over ChevronDownIconName when both are set. |
| ChevronDownIconName | string? | null | The custom icon name of the chevron-down element of each nav item. |
| ChildContent | RenderFragment? | null | Items to render as children. |
| Classes | BitNavClassStyles? | null | Custom CSS classes for different parts of the BitNav component. |
| CollapseAriaLabel | string? | null | The default aria-label of the expand/collapse button of an expanded item: the chevron of a parent that has a URL, or a group header. The CollapseAriaLabel of the item takes precedence over this value, and when neither is provided the text of the item is used. |
| Color | BitColor? | null | The general color of the nav that is only used for colored parts like icons. An explicit value wins over --bit-Nav-icon-color and --bit-Nav-indicator-color; left unset, the nav is primary unless they say otherwise. |
| DefaultSelectedItem | TItem? | null | The initially selected item in manual mode. |
| ExpandAriaLabel | string? | null | The default aria-label of the expand/collapse button of a collapsed item: the chevron of a parent that has a URL, or a group header. The ExpandAriaLabel of the item takes precedence over this value, and when neither is provided the text of the item is used. |
| FitWidth | bool | false | Renders the nav in a width to only fit its content. |
| FullWidth | bool | false | Renders the nav in full width of its container element. |
| HeaderTemplate | RenderFragment<TItem>? | null | Used to customize how content inside the group header is rendered. |
| HeaderTemplateRenderMode | BitNavItemTemplateRenderMode | BitNavItemTemplateRenderMode.Normal | The render mode of the custom HeaderTemplate. |
| IconOnly | bool | false | Only renders the icon of each nav item. |
| IndentPadding | int | 27 | The width in px of the chevron, which the items without children keep as padding in its place so every text lines up. |
| IndentReversedPadding | int | 4 | The indentation padding in px for items in reversed mode. |
| IndentValue | int | 16 | The indentation value in px for each level of depth of child item. |
| Items | IList<TItem> | new List<TItem>() | A collection of items to display in the BitNav component. |
| ItemSuffixTemplate | RenderFragment<TItem>? | null | Used to render custom content at the end of every item, after its text and ahead of its badge, while the item keeps its default content. The SuffixTemplate of an item wins over it. It is rendered inside the item's anchor (or button), so it holds content to look at and never a control of its own; group headers, separators, items replaced by their template and the IconOnly nav do not render it. |
| ItemTemplate | RenderFragment<TItem>? | null | Used to customize how content inside the item is rendered. |
| ItemTemplateRenderMode | BitNavItemTemplateRenderMode | BitNavItemTemplateRenderMode.Normal | The render mode of the custom ItemTemplate. |
| Match | BitNavMatch? | null | The URL matching behavior of the nav in the Automatic mode. The Match of an item takes precedence over this value, and when neither is provided the URL of an item has to match the current one exactly. |
| Mode | BitNavMode | BitNavMode.Automatic | Determines how the navigation will be handled. |
| NameSelectors | BitNavNameSelectors<TItem>? | null | Names and selectors of the custom input type properties. |
| NewTabHint | string? | null | Replaces the visually hidden "(opens in a new tab)" an item whose Target is _blank is announced with, e.g. to translate it. An empty value removes it. |
| NoCollapse | bool | false | Keeps every item expanded and hides the collapse/expand buttons together with the space they reserve at the start of each item. |
| NoNewTabHint | bool | false | Stops the items whose Target is _blank from announcing that they open a new tab - only for where a visible label or heading already says so. |
| OnItemClick | EventCallback<TItem> | Callback invoked when an item is clicked. | |
| OnItemToggle | EventCallback<TItem> | Callback invoked when an item is expanded or collapsed. | |
| OnSelectItem | EventCallback<TItem> | Callback invoked when an item is selected. | |
| Options | RenderFragment? | null | Alias of ChildContent. |
| RenderType | BitNavRenderType | BitNavRenderType.Normal | The way to render nav items. |
| Reselectable | bool | false | Enables recalling the select events when the same item is selected. |
| ReversedChevron | bool | false | Reverses the location of the expander chevron. |
| SelectedItem | TItem? | null | Selected item to show in the BitNav. |
| Size | BitSize? | null | The size of the nav items. An explicit value wins over the --bit-Nav-* size variables; left unset, the nav is medium unless they say otherwise. |
| SingleExpand | bool | false | Enables the single-expand mode in the BitNav. |
| Styles | BitNavClassStyles? | null | Custom CSS styles for different parts of the BitNav component. |
