Previous & Forward Buttons

Previous & Forward buttons allow users to move through a sequential process.

Best Practices

  • Often used on conjunction with Progress Indicators.
  • Use when users must complete a sequential process.
  • Place at the bottom, but above the footer, of each page in the process.
  • Buttons should be side by side at small sizes, when the button labels are short.
  • Buttons can be centered at small sizes when the buttons labels are too long for side by side arrangement.
  • When button labels are long enough to require centering, ensure that Back button is atop the Forward button.
