Three horizontal full-width banner bars stacked vertically, each representing a standard System Information Bar tenant type. The top bar is orange with a stethoscope icon and the label "Test". The middle bar is purple with a code brackets icon and the label "Development". The bottom bar is blue with a fast-forward icon and the label "Production". All text is white and centered within the bar.

System Information Bar - Custom

Colors in custom System Information Bars have no semantic meaning and can be customized alongside the title. Icons are not supported for custom bars.

A single horizontal full-width banner bar centered vertically on a light grey background. The bar is bright magenta/fuchsia with the white bold label "Custom" centered within it. This represents the custom type variant of the System Information Bar, where the color and title can be freely configured.
