# Radial Surround
Labeled hairline chips assemble around a centered subject on an elliptical ring, then optionally converge inward with a subtle edge dim. The center never moves: surrounded, not zoomed.
**Radial Surround**
```html radial-surround.html theme={null}
Radial Surround
```
Copy npx hyperframes add radial-surround to the clipboard
That writes one file: `compositions/components/radial-surround.html`.
## Paste it into your composition
Open `compositions/components/radial-surround.html` and copy what is inside into your own composition.
A component has no size or duration of its own. It takes both from the composition
you paste it into.
## Variables
Every one of these has a default, so the piece works untouched. Set the ones you
want to change on the element:
| Variable | Default | Accepts | What it does |
| - | - | - | - |
| `center_label` | `Your team` | string | Label on the default center token card. |
| `chips` | `Docs,Tickets,Dashboards,Inbox,Chat,Sheets` | string | Comma-separated chip labels that surround the center (up to 12). |
| `close_in` | `true` | boolean | Converge the ring inward with a subtle edge dim after assembly. The center never moves. |
| `cues` | \`\` | string | Comma-separated per-chip entrance times in seconds. Blank entries use the default cascade. |
| `accent` | `green` | `green`, `blue`, `violet` | Accent token family used by the center card tint. |
| `exit` | `none` | `none`, `fade`, `up` | How the surrounded stage leaves the frame. Default none: the crowded hold ends the film. |
Set them with `data-variable-values` on the element that mounts it. These are the
defaults, so this behaves exactly like the preview above until you change one:
```html wrap theme={null}
```
