Android – ToggleButton example
Problem: ToggleBar Example
Description:
This is just the simple example for implementing ToggleButton in android application.
Below are some methods which we have used in this example:
setOnClickListener – Used to register a callback whenever view is clicked
setChecked() – used to mark toggle button as checked/unchecked
setTextOn() – used to display text on toggle button whenever it is CHECKED
setTextOff() – used to display text on toggle button whenever it is UnCHECKED.
Solution:
ToggleButtonActivity.java
package com.paresh.togglebuttonexample;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.View.OnClickListener;
import android.widget.Toast;
import android.widget.ToggleButton;

public class ToggleButtonActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
ToggleButton tgbutton;
private Activity activity;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
activity = this;
tgbutton = (ToggleButton) findViewById(R.id.toggleButton1);
tgbutton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
if (tgbutton.isChecked()) {
Toast.makeText(activity, "ON", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
} else {
Toast.makeText(activity, "OFF", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
});
/*
* //To set Toggle button checked/unchecked
tgbutton.setChecked(true); */
/*
* To set text on toggle button whenever it is having
a state either ON or OFF
*/
//tgbutton.setTextOn("Hi");
// tgbutton.setTextOff("Hello");
}
}
