Hi @HalcyonPride! Could you explain more about the purpose to have the last item be a heading and maybe link to examples? You also have the ability to add breadcrumb items that don't have onClick functionality as well as apply custom styles to target specific items in the breadcrumb list accomplish this appearance. If this solution helps please close the issue, thanks!

Hi @maxwellred, thanks for replying! Here's an example in OneDrive for Business, where Breadcrumbs are used to show the file directory:

In scenarios like this, it'd make the web app more usable if we made the current folder's name a Heading.

When you say 'apply custom styles', it looks like I can only pass CSS classes, ARIA labels, etc. - those won't be enough to make the Breadcrumb item a Heading.

@HalcyonPride My mistake on the applying styles to give the affect of headings. @betrue-final-final Is there any design considerations that need to be made incorporating Headers into the breadcrumb component?
