feat(content-preview): Add host-owned comparison banner slots by zhirongwang · Pull Request #4830 · box/box-ui-elements

zhirongwang · 2026-09-10T00:50:24Z

Summary

Add banner and comparedBanner props and forward them to box-content-preview as { reactNode, height, background }.
ContentPreview does not render banner chrome or own pane/overlay CSS. BCP mounts reactNode, applies height as --bp-banner-height (PDF / thumbnail inset), and applies background on the pane (skipping .bp-dark / .bp-box3d / .bp-media-mp3).
comparedBanner is forwarded as the compared instance banner only.

Test Plan

Open side-by-side version comparison for a document and confirm each pane shows the host banner without covering the first page or thumbnails after scroll.
Compare a video or audio file and confirm the viewer stays on its dark stage.
Omit banner / comparedBanner and confirm comparison still renders as before.
yarn test src/elements/content-preview/__tests__/ContentPreview.test.js

Hosts can render overlay banners on each pane and set pane fill via CSS variables, without ContentPreview owning product chrome. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com>

Walkthrough

Content previews now accept optional banners for the main and compared panes. New styles position banners above viewer content, reserve banner space, set pane backgrounds, and constrain layout sizing. Tests cover rendering and prop forwarding.

Changes

Content preview banners

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Banner props and rendering `src/elements/content-preview/ContentPreview.js`, `src/elements/content-preview/__tests__/ContentPreview.test.js`	`ContentPreview` accepts `banner` and `comparedBanner`. The main banner renders above the viewer. Comparison mode forwards `comparedBanner` only to the compared pane. Tests cover rendering and forwarding.
Banner layout and pane styling `src/elements/content-preview/ContentPreview.scss`	Banner overlays reserve viewer space through `--bcpr-banner-height`. Viewer panes use configurable background variables. Container and content sizing support the banner layout.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to df352

When a banner is provided, the first PDF page or thumbnail can be obscured because the viewer does not reserve space for the overlay. This bounded UI regression should be fixed before relying on banner-enabled previews.
