Usage
usage.tsx
import { Bell, Heart, MessageCircle, User } from "lucide-react";import { AvatarGroup } from "@/registry/bases/radix/ui/avatar-group";export function Example() { const items = [ { icon: User, color: "bg-blue-500" }, { icon: Heart, color: "bg-red-500" }, { icon: MessageCircle, color: "bg-green-500" }, { icon: Bell, color: "bg-orange-500" }, ]; return ( <AvatarGroup max={3}> {items.map(({ icon: Icon, color }, index) => ( <div key={index} className={`flex size-10 items-center justify-center rounded-full text-white ${color}`} aria-hidden="true" > <Icon size={16} /> </div> ))} </AvatarGroup> );}- Use to represent groups of actions, categories, notifications, or user-like entities with icons instead of portraits.
- Use `max` when a group may contain more items than can fit in the available space.
- Use `reverse` to change the visual stacking order and emphasize the opposite end of the group.
- Use vertical orientation when the group should be displayed as a compact vertical stack.
Examples
Horizontal icon group
Display a compact row of colored icons without truncation.
horizontal-icon-group.tsx
import { Heart, Star, User } from "lucide-react";import { AvatarGroup } from "@/registry/bases/radix/ui/avatar-group";export function HorizontalIconGroup() { return ( <AvatarGroup> {[User, Heart, Star].map((Icon, index) => ( <div key={index} className="flex size-10 items-center justify-center rounded-full bg-blue-500 text-white" aria-hidden="true" > <Icon size={16} /> </div> ))} </AvatarGroup> );}Limited notification group
Show a maximum of three notification categories while preserving the overflow indication.
limited-notification-group.tsx
import { Bell, MessageCircle, Settings, Star } from "lucide-react";import { AvatarGroup } from "@/registry/bases/radix/ui/avatar-group";export function NotificationGroup() { const icons = [Bell, MessageCircle, Settings, Star]; return ( <AvatarGroup max={3}> {icons.map((Icon, index) => ( <div key={index} className="flex size-10 items-center justify-center rounded-full bg-purple-500 text-white" aria-hidden="true" > <Icon size={16} /> </div> ))} </AvatarGroup> );}Vertical reversed group
Use a smaller vertical stack with reversed ordering for a sidebar or compact status rail.
vertical-reversed-group.tsx
import { Bell, Heart, User } from "lucide-react";import { AvatarGroup } from "@/registry/bases/radix/ui/avatar-group";export function VerticalIconGroup() { return ( <AvatarGroup orientation="vertical" reverse size={32}> {[User, Heart, Bell].map((Icon, index) => ( <div key={index} className="flex size-8 items-center justify-center rounded-full bg-blue-500 text-white" aria-hidden="true" > <Icon size={14} /> </div> ))} </AvatarGroup> );}API reference
PropTypeDefaultDescription
maxnumber—Limits the number of rendered group items and enables the component’s truncation or overflow treatment when there are additional children.
reverseboolean—Reverses the group’s visual stacking order.
orientation"horizontal" | "vertical"—Controls whether the group is arranged horizontally or vertically.
sizenumber—Sets the numeric size used by the group for its layout and overlap calculations. The demo uses `32` with `size-8` children.
Accessibility
- The demo uses icon-only elements, so the icons should be marked decorative with `aria-hidden="true"` when they convey no unique information.
- If each item represents an interactive action or meaningful category, use an accessible interactive element or provide an accessible name such as `aria-label` or visible text.
- Do not rely on color alone to distinguish items; pair colors with recognizable icons and accessible names when the distinctions matter.
- Ensure the overflow treatment remains understandable to screen-reader users if the hidden items contain meaningful information.
