      jToggleButton1.setSelected(true);

and if you are using netbeans go to properties of button and choose selected property mark it checked if you want someone to enter the text in the textfield then automatically let the toggle button select use like this

    private void jTextField1KeyPressed(java.awt.event.KeyEvent evt) {                                       
     jToggleButton1.setSelected(true);
    }

you can check if it is selected or not using if(jToggleButton1.isSelected()) { jTextField1.setText("BUTTON IS SELECTED"); } – Tech Nerd Apr 27 '13 at 17:12

Add a listener to the textfield and call toggleButton.setSelected(boolean selected).

   if(t.getText().length()==0){

       jToggleButton1.setSelected(true);
   }
   else if(t.getText().length()>0){

      jToggleButton1.setSelected(false);
   }

you have to check the length of the text field and then by using the if-else you can select or dis select the toggle button

int count=0;

private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {

    for(int i=0; i<1; i++){count++;}
    count=count;
    System.out.println(count);
    if(count==1){
      System.out.println("open");
      jButton1.setText("open");
     }
    if(count==2){
      System.out.println("close");
      jButton1.setText("close");
    count=0;
    }

}
