ListItemText API

The API documentation of the ListItemText React component. Learn more about the props and the CSS customization points.

Import

import ListItemText from '@material-ui/core/ListItemText';
// or
import { ListItemText } from '@material-ui/core';

You can learn more about the difference by reading this guide.

Component name

The MuiListItemText name can be used for providing default props or style overrides at the theme level.

Props

Name	Type	Default	Description
children	node		Alias for the primary prop.
classes	object		Override or extend the styles applied to the component. See CSS API below for more details.
disableTypography	bool	false	If true, the children won't be wrapped by a Typography component. This can be useful to render an alternative Typography variant by wrapping the children (or primary) text, and optional secondary text with the Typography component.
inset	bool	false	If true, the children will be indented. This should be used if there is no left avatar or left icon.
primary	node		The main content element.
primaryTypographyProps	object		These props will be forwarded to the primary typography component (as long as disableTypography is not true).
secondary	node		The secondary content element.
secondaryTypographyProps	object		These props will be forwarded to the secondary typography component (as long as disableTypography is not true).

The ref is forwarded to the root element.

Any other props supplied will be provided to the root element (native element).

CSS

Rule name	Global class	Description
root	.MuiListItemText-root	Styles applied to the root element.
multiline	.MuiListItemText-multiline	Styles applied to the Typography components if primary and secondary are set.
dense	.MuiListItemText-dense	Styles applied to the Typography components if dense.
inset	.MuiListItemText-inset	Styles applied to the root element if inset={true}.
primary	.MuiListItemText-primary	Styles applied to the primary Typography component.
secondary	.MuiListItemText-secondary	Styles applied to the secondary Typography component.

You can override the style of the component thanks to one of these customization points:

• With a rule name of the classes object prop.
• With a global class name.
• With a theme and an overrides property.

If that's not sufficient, you can check the implementation of the component for more detail.
