Today we had a discussion at the office about UI elements in the required document.
The question is whether a UI requirement is functional or non-functional.
Is this a functional or non-functional requirement?
That is a non-functional requirement, it states how a system is to perform, not what it is to perform.
If this clear distinction is too black and white, too simple perhaps, ignore it or provide a better one ! And, why do you care ?
EDIT: prompted by the other answers. Whether the requirement is functional or non-functional is immaterial to its requirementhood — if it’s a requirement you’d better satisfy it in your product.
