Description

Starting from T208184 there have been gathered several ideas to make no search results better usable.
Current look:

  • There's misalignment vertically.
  • There's interaction color as visual indicator missing.

Proposal by @alexhollender

I think we should anchor on the use case where the search returns results because that's more common. I think it looks better with the proposed icon rather than no icon.

Event Timeline

@Volker_E wondering if blue is too prominent in the case where other results are returned? Perhaps a gray button is obvious enough?

Given Minerva plans to use wvui eventually, I think this should probably be repurposed as a concern of the search widget there.

Marking as resolved.

Re-opening after quick conv with @alexhollender_WMF. That should be tagged MinervaNeue only until certain requests are needed for Codex.
