CheckButton

A selectable Button for multiple selection.

Design guidance

When and how to use this

Use a CheckButton to represent a selection that has an immediate effect on the state of other interface items, such as a filter menu. It also works well for lists of tags or labels.

When to consider something else

If a user should only select one of a number of options, use a RadioButton. For forms, alongside other form controls, generally a standard Checkbox is more appropriate.

React

CheckButton composes the Button component and supports everything that Button does in addition to a selected state controlled by the isChecked prop.

<Stack direction="row" spacing="400">
<CheckButton isChecked={false}>Idle</CheckButton>
<CheckButton isChecked>Checked</CheckButton>
</Stack>


PropDescription
isCheckedif true, the CheckButton will be checked. You'll need to pass onChange to update its value (since it is now controlled).
isDisabledif true, the CheckButton will be disabled.

Group

Use a CheckButtonGroup to group a set of CheckButton components together that represent a single piece of state. This allows you to get and set state as an array of values and disable the entire group via isDisabled.

<Stack direction="row" spacing="400">
<CheckButtonGroup defaultValue={['1']}>
<CheckButton value="1">Button 1</CheckButton>
<CheckButton value="2">Button 2</CheckButton>
<CheckButton value="3">Button 3</CheckButton>
</CheckButtonGroup>
</Stack>

Color Scheme

CheckButton supports color modes when using the next theme, but sometimes a design calls for the colorScheme to override the mode. Pass light or dark to set the color explicitly.

<Stack direction="row" spacing="400" bg="neutral.800" p="400" m="-400">
<CheckButtonGroup colorScheme="light" defaultValue={['1']}>
<CheckButton value="1">Light 1</CheckButton>
<CheckButton value="2">Light 2</CheckButton>
<CheckButton value="3">Light 3</CheckButton>
</CheckButtonGroup>
</Stack>

Variant

By default, CheckButton uses the tertiary Button variant. It also supports primary and ghost.

Primary

<Stack direction="row" spacing="400">
<CheckButtonGroup variant="primary" defaultValue={['1']}>
<CheckButton value="1">Primary 1</CheckButton>
<CheckButton value="2">Primary 2</CheckButton>
<CheckButton value="3">Primary 3</CheckButton>
</CheckButtonGroup>
</Stack>

Ghost

live

<Stack direction="row" spacing="400">
<CheckButtonGroup variant="ghost" defaultValue={['1']}>
<CheckButton value="1">Ghost 1</CheckButton>
<CheckButton value="2">Ghost 2</CheckButton>
<CheckButton value="3">Ghost 3</CheckButton>
</CheckButtonGroup>
</Stack>

Minimal

Pass isMinimal for the minimal style of each variant which only ever renders a single pixel border.

</CheckButtonGroup>
</Stack>
