Label and size in EJ2 JavaScript Check box control

10 May 20235 minutes to read

This section explains the different sizes and labels.

Label

The CheckBox caption can be defined by using the label property. This reduces the manual addition of label for CheckBox. You can customize the label position before or after the CheckBox through the labelPosition property.

ej.base.enableRipple(true);

//Label position - Left.
var checkbox = new ej.buttons.CheckBox({ label: 'Left Side Label', labelPosition: 'Before' });
checkbox.appendTo('#checkbox1');

//Label position - Right.
checkbox = new ej.buttons.CheckBox({ label: 'Right Side Label', checked: true });
checkbox.appendTo('#checkbox2');

Size

The different CheckBox sizes available are default and small. To reduce the size of default CheckBox to small, set the cssClass property to e-small.

ej.base.enableRipple(true);

//Small CheckBox.
var checkbox = new ej.buttons.CheckBox({ label: 'Small', cssClass: 'e-small' });
checkbox.appendTo('#checkbox1');

//Default CheckBox.
checkbox = new ej.buttons.CheckBox({ label: 'Default' });
checkbox.appendTo('#checkbox2');
