Emotive Function	/files/b3o7ZgKGBBmM5RZ2E9OB

The primary function of a status indicator is Feedback. Users need to know whether their action has been completed successfully or not. Additionally, an error or success message can be punctuated by adding Emotive functions to drive home the action's result. ## Examples

Button with success/error states by Andrei Mironov

The above example is used to give feedback to users on whether their action was successful. Feedback is provided with a change of color and warning symbol. The color change drives a strong emotional response, as red is associated with warnings and errors. The movement of the transformed button helps provide additional reinforcement to the emotional response.

Similar themes can be found in the above two examples, where color change and subtle motion drive an emotional feedback response to the user. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
