Avatar
The Avonni Avatar component allows your users to express themselves visually by choosing an image or icon that represents them within your application.
Changing the Properties
Adding Text information
As an option, text can be added to the avatar component to illustrate it. Primary and secondary text, as well as tags, can be used to highlight specific information.
Adding Status, Presence and Entity
In some cases, you might need to show additional information visually. Status, Presence and Entity are a great way to achieve this.
Adding Actions
Actions give users a quick way to accomplish a task inside Salesforce. For example, when a user taps on a Button, the action that should be performed can be specified from the interactions tab. On an avatar, actions append a dropdown menu next to the avatar.
Adding Interactions
From the interactions panel, you can create interactions when users click on an activity item and/or an action. For example, you may want to redirect users to the record page when they click the activity item link.
Here is a full list of actions you can add to the avatar.
Styling the Avatar
From the Styles panel, you can define Primary Text, Secondary Text, Tertiary Text, Icon, Border, Initials, Presence and Status for the Avatar.
You can find the instructions for styling here.
