More Horizontal

The more-horizontal icon represents additional options menus, action overflow, and context menus in horizontal orientation across user interfaces. Featuring three horizontal dots (ellipsis), this universally recognized symbol has become the standard indicator for accessing additional actions, hidden options, and contextual menus.

In modern applications like action menus in social media platforms like Twitter and Instagram for post options, item context menus in project management tools like Linear and Asana, or overflow menus in mobile apps where screen space is limited, you'll see this icon revealing additional functionality. It appears in table row actions for record management, in card headers for item options, or in navigation bars for secondary actions that don't fit in primary navigation.

From an interaction design perspective, the horizontal three-dot symbol communicates more than just 'more options' - it specifically indicates discoverable secondary actions, context-sensitive operations, and the pattern of progressive disclosure that keeps interfaces clean while maintaining feature accessibility. This overflow pattern helps users understand additional capabilities exist without cluttering the primary interface.

More Horizontal is one of 458 icons in Akar Icons, made by Arturo Wibawa and released under MIT. It is drawn on a 24 × 24 grid with a 2 stroke.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds MoreHorizontalIcon to components/icons/akar-icons-more-horizontal.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed MoreHorizontalIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the More Horizontal icon, or any of 458 Akar Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 24 × 24 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation, and its stroke.

More Horizontal is a line icon drawn with a stroke width of 2. Change it in Customize before you copy, or pass strokeWidth to the installed component when all of its strokes share one width.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="More Horizontal", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. MoreHorizontalIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <MoreHorizontalIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. MIT allows commercial use; keep the license notice when you ship the icons' source files. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: MIT only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Akar Icons, Arturo Wibawa and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.
