5. Swatches for configurable products

Swatches can be either functional or only visual. Visual swatches do not change tile configuration, it is just and info about product options, f.e. sizes. Click on functional swatch updates give tile attribute configuration while click on visual swatch redirect a user to product’s PDP.

If a product is a simple product, or another type of product without swatches, it is necessary to keep space taken by swatches in configurable products. it means that there will be a gap. However it isrewuired that all names and other elements are positioned on the same horizontal line.

6.Name

It is necessary to define the number of name lines. If the name exceeded designed space it ends with 3 dots. All product’s name across tiles should keep the same height, even if name is shorter.
