What is an Active State?

Active state refers to how design elements appear when they are selected or in use by the user. This visual representation often includes changes in color, size, or additional effects like borders or shadows. These indicators help users understand which elements are interactable and provide feedback about their current actions.

By clearly defining the active state of elements, designers improve usability and enhance the interaction experience. This approach ensures that users can easily identify and engage with interactive components, leading to a more intuitive and effective interface.
