Overview​

The IndentAttribute is used to visually indent settings in the Fig web UI, creating a hierarchical display that helps organize related settings.

Settings with different indents

Usage​

[Setting("Root setting")]
public string RootSetting { get; set; } = "Root";

[Setting("Child setting")]
[Indent(1)]  // Indented by 10px
public string ChildSetting { get; set; } = "Child";

[Setting("Grandchild setting")]
[Indent(2)]  // Indented by 20px  
public string GrandchildSetting { get; set; } = "Grandchild";

Parameters​

  • Level: An integer value between 0 and 5 (inclusive) that specifies the indentation level
  • Default: 1 if not specified when using the attribute
  • Multiplier: Each level adds 10px of left margin in the web UI

Validation​

  • Level must be between 0 and 5 (inclusive)
  • Values outside this range will throw an ArgumentOutOfRangeException
  • A level of 0 results in no indentation (same as not using the attribute)

Behavior​

  • When the attribute is not present, no indentation is applied
  • The indentation is applied as a left margin in the web UI
  • Indentation is calculated as: level * 10px
  • Maximum indentation is 50px (level 5)
