Design guidance for using tabular numbers
With the latest Red Hat font updates, we can enable tabular numbers, which will tell the browser to use the monospace font for any numbers used.
You can enable tabular numbers on any block on a page - either the entire page, a section of the page, a component, a random element within a component, etc.
It would be great to:
- Write usage guidelines/suggestions around when to use tabular numbers - maybe on the typography page? https://www.patternfly.org/v4/guidelines/typography
- Build some demos that use tabular numbers
- Tables, data lists, other types of lists, anywhere that numbers may precede text in a stacked context like dropdown menu items, etc
- Look at our components and see if there is anywhere that we might want to enable tabular numbers by defualt
- Form control elements might be good - like text inputs (including the ones used in the number input component, and pagination component page number)
