Example

Usage

Default pressed

An initial, uncontrolled value can be provided using the defaultValue prop.

tsx
<ToggleGroup defaultValue="underline">
<ToggleGroup.Item value="bold" aria-label="Bold">
<BoldIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
<ToggleGroup.Item value="italic" aria-label="Italic">
<ItalicIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
<ToggleGroup.Item value="underline" aria-label="Underline">
<UnderlineIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
</ToggleGroup>
tsx
<ToggleGroup defaultValue="underline">
<ToggleGroup.Item value="bold" aria-label="Bold">
<BoldIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
<ToggleGroup.Item value="italic" aria-label="Italic">
<ItalicIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
<ToggleGroup.Item value="underline" aria-label="Underline">
<UnderlineIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
</ToggleGroup>

Controlled pressed

The value prop can be used to make the pressed state controlled. The onChange event is fired when the user toggle the button, and receives the new value.

Your text style is: bold.
tsx
import { createSignal } from "solid-js";
function ControlledExample() {
const [value, setValue] = createSignal("underline");
return (
<>
<ToggleGroup value={value()} onChange={setValue}>
...
</ToggleGroup>
<p>Your text style is: {value()}.</p>
</>
);
}
tsx
import { createSignal } from "solid-js";
function ControlledExample() {
const [value, setValue] = createSignal("underline");
return (
<>
<ToggleGroup value={value()} onChange={setValue}>
...
</ToggleGroup>
<p>Your text style is: {value()}.</p>
</>
);
}

Multiple selection

The multiple prop can be used to create a select that allow multi-selection.

tsx
import { createSignal } from "solid-js";
function MultipleSelectionExample() {
const [values, setValues] = createSignal(["bold", "underline"]);
return (
<ToggleGroup class="toggle-group" value={values()} onChange={setValues}>
<ToggleGroup.Item class="toggle-group__item" value="bold" aria-label="Bold">
<BoldIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
<ToggleGroup.Item class="toggle-group__item" value="italic" aria-label="Italic">
<ItalicIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
<ToggleGroup.Item class="toggle-group__item" value="underline" aria-label="Underline">
<UnderlineIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
</ToggleGroup>
);
}
tsx
import { createSignal } from "solid-js";
function MultipleSelectionExample() {
const [values, setValues] = createSignal(["bold", "underline"]);
return (
<ToggleGroup class="toggle-group" value={values()} onChange={setValues}>
<ToggleGroup.Item class="toggle-group__item" value="bold" aria-label="Bold">
<BoldIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
<ToggleGroup.Item class="toggle-group__item" value="italic" aria-label="Italic">
<ItalicIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
<ToggleGroup.Item class="toggle-group__item" value="underline" aria-label="Underline">
<UnderlineIcon />
</ToggleGroup.Item>
</ToggleGroup>
);
}
