# Status and runtime chips are soft tints with one pixel

> Status chips and runtime chips are soft tints with one pixel or icon, instead of saturated fills with an ink border.

Source: https://raft-design.botiverse.build/decisions/0017-soft-status-chips. Generated from the current release; where it differs from what you remember, this page is right.

## Context

The product code draws status chips and runtime chips as saturated fills with an ink border. A screen can hold a dozen of them.

## Decision

Status and runtime chips sit on a soft tint, with a square pixel or an icon carrying the saturated color.

## Consequences

The saturated color is only one pixel large, so a screen full of chips stays quiet.
