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

Usage
Dividers separate content into clear groups.
Principles

Subtle
Dividers should be noticeable in a layout, but not jarring.

Secondary
Dividers should only be used if elements cannot be separated using white space.

Infrequent
Use dividers sparingly, to create groupings rather than separate items.
Types

Full-bleed dividers
Full-bleed dividers separate content into sections and span the entire length of a layout.

Inset dividers
Inset dividers separate related content, anchored by elements that align with the app bar title.

Middle dividers
Middle dividers space related content and are centered in a layout or list.

Dividers with subheaders
Dividers can be paired with subheaders to help define content groupings.
Types
Full-bleed dividers
Full-bleed dividers separate content into sections, such as:
- Separating list and layout elements
- Indicating where an element may expand

When lists don’t have an anchoring element (such as an icon), spacing may not be enough to separate content. Full-bleed dividers can help separate individual tiles

Inset dividers
Inset dividers separate related content, such as emails in an email thread. They should be used with anchoring elements such as icons or avatars, and left-aligned with the app bar title.

Inset dividers

Use inset dividers when there are anchoring elements such as an icon or avatar
Middle dividers
Dividers can also be placed in the middle of a layout. They are best for separating related content, such prices on a receipt.

Dividers with subheaders
Dividers can be paired with subheaders to identify grouped content. Place dividers above subheaders to reinforce the subheader’s connection to content.
