Anatomy

A. Icon (Optional)

The icon is a visual illustration that can complement the text value or be used independently. If it is combined with a label, it can be placed as a leading or trailing element.

B. Label (Optional)

The label indicates short information bits such as keywords, categories, or status. The text value can be used independently or combined with an icon.

C. Dot (Optional)

A dot can be used to separate status info label items in a horizontal alignment.
