Usage meter
A React component in Beamline's Feedback category, in the free sample.
An allowance and what fills it: one bar split by source, the room left, a warning near the limit and the overflow in its own red well past a notch at the limit.
Use it for
- Plan limits and quotas: seats, storage, requests.
Not for
Anatomy
- header (label, figure with a status glyph when warn/over)
- bar: allowance well (m-inset meter, sources in series colours up to the limit)
- notch at the limit and overflow well (solid red), only when over
- legend (swatch, label, value; room left or overflow with glyph and words)
States
- ok
- warn (orange figure + ▲ glyph)
- over (red figure + ⓘ glyph, overflow well after the notch, 'N over' in the legend)
Keyboard
- Not interactive (role meter)
Motion
Segment widths ease over --pui-duration-standard when values change; nothing moves at rest. When the value changes, the change itself stays in view for a moment (_shared/delta-ghost): what was lost sits as a pale ghost under the fill, holds about 0.7 s and drains toward the new end; what was gained arrives lit and cools over about 1.3 s. The ghost spans the real before and after, never an in-between value; a run of changes the same way extends one ghost. Reduced motion: the ghost is shown still for 1.1 s, then removed.

More in Feedback
- Alert: A message that stays until it is dealt with: what happened, what to do, an action; danger and warning are announced; dismissing folds its height away.
- Announcement bar: A banner across the top for news and offers: messages take turns, a countdown ticks, and dismissing folds it away and can remember it.
- Empty state: What a place will hold and the first step to fill it, instead of a blank; a compact size for panels and filtered tables.
- Notification centre: Updates that wait to be read: a bell with the unread count opens All / Unread, new and earlier groups, and per item mark read or dismiss.
- Progress: How much of a known task is done, or a moving bar when the length is unknown, with an optional label and value.
- Skeleton: Holds the shape of content while it loads, then crossfades into it, so nothing jumps.
- Spinner: A ring that spins while work runs and closes into a drawn check or cross when it ends.
