CheckButton¶
Inherits: Button < BaseButton < Control < CanvasItem < Node < Object
A button that represents a binary choice.
Description¶
CheckButton is a toggle button displayed as a check field. It's similar to CheckBox in functionality, but it has a different appearance. To follow established UX patterns, it's recommended to use CheckButton when toggling it has an immediate effect on something. For example, it can be used when pressing it shows or hides advanced settings, without asking the user to confirm this action.

Color font_focus_color = Color(0.95, 0.95, 0.95, 1)
The CheckButton text's font color when it's focused. Only replaces the normal text color of the button. Disabled, hovered, and pressed states take precedence over this color.

The CheckButton text's font color when it's hovered.
Color font_hover_pressed_color = Color(1, 1, 1, 1)

int check_v_offset = 0
The vertical offset used when rendering the toggle icons (in pixels).
int h_separation = 4
The separation between the toggle icon and the text (in pixels). Negative values will be treated as 0 when used.
int outline_size = 0
The size of the text outline.
Note: If using a font with FontFile.multichannel_signed_distance_field enabled, its FontFile.msdf_pixel_range must be set to at least twice the value of outline_size for outline rendering to look correct. Otherwise, the outline may appear to be cut off earlier than intended.

StyleBox disabled

StyleBox focus
The StyleBox to display as a background when the CheckButton is focused. The focus StyleBox is displayed over the base StyleBox, so a partially transparent StyleBox should be used to ensure the base StyleBox remains visible. A StyleBox that represents an outline or an underline works well for this purpose. To disable the focus visual effect, assign a StyleBoxEmpty resource. Note that disabling the focus visual effect will harm keyboard/controller navigation usability, so this is not recommended for accessibility reasons.
StyleBox hover
The StyleBox to display as a background when the CheckButton is hovered.
StyleBox hover_pressed
The StyleBox to display as a background when the CheckButton is hovered and pressed.
StyleBox normal
The StyleBox to display as a background.
