# Feature: Call to action content element

## Description

A new content element in the **Theme** group, **Call to
action**, renders a heading, a short rich text, an optional large icon and up to
two links as a band or a box - the jumbotron of other themes.

| Field | Values |
| --- | --- |
| **Tone** | **Surface**, the default; **Accent tint**, the tint of the accent band of the **Appearance** tab; **Inverse**, the other appearance - dark on a light page, light on a dark one; **Placeholder**, no fill and a dashed frame, for content that does not exist yet. |
| **Width** | **A box, centred in the column**, the default, or **A band across the whole column**. |
| **Icon** | An icon of the theme's icon picker above the heading. |
| **Link** and **Second link** | Two links, each with a label, a style and an icon, like the link of a hero. The second link defaults to the outlined style. |

The element is available to editors once their backend group grants the
content type **Call to action**.

## Impact

The element renders `<section class="theme-cta">` with the modifiers
`--boxed` or `--band` and `--accent`, `--inverse` or
`--placeholder`. It is rendered by `lib.themeContentElement`,
like every content element of the theme.
