Questions tagged [jtogglebutton]

The JToggleButton represents button that can be toggled, similar to a check box.

JToggleButtons can be placed wherever checkbox functionality is desired in a button. When the user presses a JToggleButton, then the button stays visually pressed. When the user presses again, then it is visually unpressed.

Depending on the user's look and feel, the button may look like a normal button, or it may look completely different.
