Divider

A divider is a thin line that groups content in lists and containers.

Dividers can reinforce tapability, such as when used to separate list items or define tappable regions in an accordion.

Usage

Use full width dividers to separate larger sections of unrelated content.

<section>
  <p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
  <md-divider></md-divider>
  <p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
</section>

Inset dividers

Use inset dividers to separate related content within a section.

<section>
  <p>Material 2</p>
  <md-divider inset></md-divider>
  <p>Material 3</p>
</section>

Inset dividers are equally indented from both sides of the screen by default. Use inset-start or inset-end to change this.

<section>
  <p>Material 2</p>
  <md-divider inset-start></md-divider>
  <p>Material 3</p>
</section>

Accessibility

Add a role="separator" attribute to non-decorative dividers that separate sections of content or groups of menuitems.

<ul>
  <li>Item one</li>
  <md-divider role="separator"></md-divider>
  <li>Item two</li>
</ul>

Theming

Divider supports theming and can be customized with CSS custom property tokens.

Tokens

Token	Default value
--md-divider-color	--md-sys-color-outline-variant
--md-divider-thickness	1px

• All tokens

Example

<style>
:root {
  --md-sys-color-outline-variant: #BEC9C8;
  --md-divider-thickness: 2px;
}
</style>

<section>

  <md-divider></md-divider>
