Tailwind Segmented Control with Motion-Path Comet Indicator

A four-way mode switch whose thumb travels an arc instead of a straight line, trailed by a blurred comet tail that lags behind on a slower curve. The motion path is an arbitrary property — [offset-path:path('M43,28C123,6,203,6,283,28')] — and each radio moves it with group-has-[#tbg02-3:checked]/seg:[offset-distance:66.666%]. A live status line under the control reports the active mode, still with no JavaScript.

What changed in the port

Which parts became utilities, which stayed CSS, and why.

  • The four .btn-02__seg:has(#…:checked){--d:…} rules became group-has-[#tbg02-N:checked]/seg: variants directly on the thumb and tail.
  • Inputs moved inside their labels, so has-checked: replaces the input:checked + label sibling chain.
  • UI upgrade: a live status line (pure CSS) now explains what each mode actually does, and the indicator dot goes dark on Idle.
  • UI upgrade: muted labels rose to oklch(0.72) for 4.5:1+ on the dark well, and the label is wired to the group with aria-labelledby.

Demo: Tailwind Segmented Control with Motion-Path Comet Indicator
Source: https://codefronts.com/components/tailwind-css-button-groups/tailwind-segmented-control-motion-path-indicator/

A four-way mode switch whose thumb travels an arc instead of a straight line, trailed by a blurred comet tail that lags behind on a slower curve. The motion path is an arbitrary property — [offset-path:path('M43,28C123,6,203,6,283,28')] — and each radio moves it with group-has-[#tbg02-3:checked]/seg:[offset-distance:66.666%]. A live status line under the control reports the active mode, still with no JavaScript.

How this works

Path coordinates without spaces. Tailwind turns underscores into spaces, but path data does not need either — commas are enough, so the arc reads cleanly in a class list:

<span class="[offset-path:path('M43,28C123,6,203,6,283,28')]
  [offset-distance:0%] transition-[offset-distance] duration-500
  group-has-[#tbg02-2:checked]/seg:[offset-distance:33.333%]">

Why the geometry is fixed. The four columns are exactly 80px, so the path's endpoints land on each segment's centre. If you change the column width, recompute the x values (first centre, last centre) and keep the control at w-fit.

Reduced motion swaps the arc for a straight line and shortens the move to 200ms.

Make it yours

  • Flatter arc: raise the control points' y from 6 towards 28.
  • Three segments: grid-cols-[repeat(3,80px)], path end 203,28, distances 0 / 50 / 100%.
  • Swap the gradient in --color-tbg02-acc / -acc2 for a single brand colour if the comet feels too playful.

Gotchas — read before shipping

  • Motion-path coordinates are relative to the control's padding box — keep relative on the group.
  • Arbitrary values can't contain spaces; write path data with commas, not underscores.
  • Keep the visible text on the labels: the thumb is decorative and aria-hidden.
