Selection
Single selection
ButtonGroup supports radio type selection in which only one button can be selected. This can be achieved by adding input element along with id
attribute with its corresponding label along with for
attribute inside the target element. In this ButtonGroup, the type of the input element should be radio
and e-btn
is added to the label
element.
The following example illustrates the single selection behavior in ButtonGroup,
<template>
<div id='app'>
<div class='e-btn-group'>
<input type="radio" id="radioleft" name="align" value="left"/>
<label class="e-btn" for="radioleft">Left</label>
<input type="radio" id="radiomiddle" name="align" value="middle"/>
<label class="e-btn" for="radiomiddle">Center</label>
<input type="radio" id="radioright" name="align" value="right"/>
<label class="e-btn" for="radioright">Right</label>
</div>
</div>
</template>
<script>
import Vue from 'vue';
export default {
name: 'app'
}

#app {
margin: 20px;
}
.e-btn-group {
margin: 25px 5px 20px 20px;
}
</style>
Multiple selection
ButtonGroup supports checkbox type selection in which multiple button can be selected. This can be achieved by adding input element with its corresponding label. In this ButtonGroup, the type of the input element should be checkbox
and e-btn
is added to the label
element.
The following example illustrates the multiple selection behavior in ButtonGroup,
<template>
<div id='app'>
<div class='e-btn-group'>
<input type="checkbox" id="checkbold" name="font" value="bold"/>
<label class="e-btn" for="checkbold">Bold</label>
<input type="checkbox" id="checkitalic" name="font" value="italic" />
<label class="e-btn" for="checkitalic">Italic</label>

<label class="e-btn" for="checkline">Underline</label>
</div>
