PullQuote
Editorial pull quotes for magazine-style layouts. Extracts blockquotes or paragraphs and displays them as prominent typographic elements.
Basic usage
Wrap a blockquote or paragraph to turn it into a pull quote.
{% pullquote %}
> Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.
{% /pullquote %}<blockquote data-rune="pull-quote" data-rune-fields="{"align":"center","variant":"default"}">
<blockquote>
<p>Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.</p>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.
<blockquote class="rf-pullquote rf-pullquote--center rf-pullquote--default" data-align="center" data-variant="default" data-elevation="flush" data-rune="pull-quote" data-density="compact">
<blockquote>
<p>Design is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.</p>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>Alignment
Use the align attribute to position the pull quote within the content flow.
{% pullquote align="right" %}
> The best interface is no interface.
{% /pullquote %}<blockquote data-rune="pull-quote" data-rune-fields="{"align":"right","variant":"default"}">
<blockquote>
<p>The best interface is no interface.</p>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>The best interface is no interface.
<blockquote class="rf-pullquote rf-pullquote--right rf-pullquote--default" data-align="right" data-variant="default" data-elevation="flush" data-rune="pull-quote" data-density="compact">
<blockquote>
<p>The best interface is no interface.</p>
</blockquote>
</blockquote>Styles
The variant attribute controls the visual treatment.
{% pullquote variant="accent" align="center" %}
> Words can be like X-rays if you use them properly — they'll go through anything.
{% /pullquote %}<blockquote data-rune="pull-quote" data-rune-fields="{"align":"center","variant":"accent"}">

The background layer (SPEC-088): image, video, gradient, flat overlay wash and legibility scrim, in a single injected layer behind the rune's content.
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
bg | string | — | Background preset applied to this block |
bg-from | string | — | Gradient start colour — a semantic token name (→ var(--rf-color-*)) |

bg-gradient-type | "linear" | "radial" | "conic" | — | Gradient type |
bg-to | string | — | Gradient end colour — a semantic token name |
bg-via | string | — | Optional middle gradient stop — a semantic token name |
scrim | "top" | "bottom" | "left" | "right" | "none" | — | Scrim direction (heaviest edge); presence turns the scrim on, "none" opts out of the default cover scrim |
scrim-blur | "none" | "sm" | "md" | "lg" | — | Frost scrim blur amount |
scrim-strength | "sm" | "md" | "lg" | — | Gradient scrim strength |
scrim-tone | "dark" | "light" | — | Whether the scrim darkens (for light text) or lightens (for dark text) |
scrim-type | "gradient" | "frost" | — | Scrim treatment: gradient (default) or frost (backdrop blur) |
dropcap
Per-instance drop-cap opt-in (SPEC-108).
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
dropcap | boolean | — | Style the opening letter of a prose body as a drop cap (SPEC-108). Honoured only when the body reads as prose; ignored otherwise. |
elevation
The chrome/depth ladder (SPEC-107). The skin maps each rung to a chrome bundle by attribute, so there is no BEM class.
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
elevation | "sunken" | "flush" | "flat" | "raised" | "floating" | "overlay" | "none" | "sm" | "md" | "lg" | — | Surface depth on the SPEC-107 ladder (sunken→overlay); none/sm/md/lg are deprecated aliases |
inset
Internal padding override.
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
inset | "flush" | "tight" | "default" | "loose" | "breathe" | — | Inner padding of this block |
motion
Scroll-reveal entrance (SPEC-105). The author declares the character, the theme owns the choreography, a behaviour owns the timing.
| Attribute | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
reveal | "none" | "fade" | "slide" | "scale" | "blur" | — | Scroll-reveal entrance character (none|fade|slide|scale|blur); the theme owns the choreography |
stagger | boolean | — | Cascade this block's items in as it reveals (no-op on single-child runes) |
reading
Editorial register for body text (SPEC-108). The author picks the register; the theme owns the magnitude.

|---|---|---|---|
spacing | "flush" | "tight" | "default" | "loose" | "breathe" | — | Vertical spacing above and below this block |
substrate
Generated pattern fills (SPEC-087). Markers only — the engine sets the attributes and cell/opacity custom properties, CSS draws the pattern.

|---|---|---|---|
substrate | "dots" | "grid" | "lines" | "cross" | "checker" | "none" | — | Generated surface pattern |
substrate-fill | "inherit" | "inset" | — | Surface fill the pattern sits on (full colour stays with tint) |
substrate-opacity | "sm" | "md" | "lg" | — | Pattern ink strength |
substrate-size | "sm" | "md" | "lg" | — | Pattern cell size |
substrate-target | "self" | "media" | — | Which surface the pattern fills (overrides the rune/theme default) |
