hig-components-search

Apple HIG 指南中关于导航相关组件的指导，包括搜索字段、页面控件以及路径控件。当用户说“我的应用中搜索功能应该如何运作？”“我需要面包屑导航？”“我该如何对内容进行分页？”或者询问搜索字段、搜索栏、页面控件、路径控件、面包屑导航、导航组件、搜索 UX、搜索建议、搜索范围、分页内容导航，或文件路径层级展示时，可选用此技能。交叉参考：HIG 组件菜单、HIG 组件控件、HIG 组件对话框、HIG 数据可视化模式。

  Apple HIG guidance for navigation-related components including search fields,
  page controls, and path controls. Use this skill when the user says "how should
  search work in my app," "I need a breadcrumb," "how do I paginate content," or
  asks about search field, search bar, page control, path control, breadcrumb,
  navigation component, search UX, search suggestions, search scopes, paginated
  content navigation, or file path hierarchy display. Cross-references:
  hig-components-menus, hig-components-controls, hig-components-dialogs,
  hig-patterns.

Apple HIG: Navigation Components

Check for .claude/apple-design-context.md before asking questions. Use existing context and only ask for information not already covered.

Key Principles

  1. •

    Search: discoverable with instant feedback. Place search fields where users expect them (top of list, toolbar/navigation bar). Show results as the user types.

  2. •

    Page controls: position in a flat page sequence. For discrete, equally weighted pages (onboarding, photo gallery). Show current page and total count.

  3. •

    Path controls: file hierarchy navigation. macOS path controls display location within a directory structure and allow jumping to any ancestor.

  4. •

    Search scopes narrow large result sets. Provide scope buttons so users can filter without complex queries.

  5. •

    Clear empty states for search. Helpful message suggesting corrections or alternatives, not a blank screen.

  6. •

    Page controls are not for hierarchical navigation. Flat, linear sequences only. Use navigation controllers, tab bars, or sidebars for hierarchy.

  7. •

    Keep path controls concise. Show meaningful segments only. Users can click any segment to navigate directly.

  8. •

    Support keyboard for search. Command-F and system search shortcuts should activate search.

Output Format

  1. •Component recommendation -- search field, page control, or path control, and why.
  2. •Behavior specification -- interaction model (search-as-you-type, swipe for pages, click-to-navigate for paths).
  3. •Platform differences across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, visionOS.

Questions to Ask

  1. •What type of content is being searched or navigated?
  2. •Which platforms?
  3. •How large is the dataset?
  4. •Is search the primary interaction?
