Checkbox
The Quasar Checkbox component is a basic element to be used for selection or toggling by the user. It has a number of features, as described below.
Please also refer to the Option Group documentation on other possibilities for creating groups of Toggles.
Works well with QField for additional functionality such as a helper, error message placeholder and many others.
Basic Usage
<!-- No label: --> |
Vue Properties
Supports v-model
which should be binded to a Boolean or Array in your scope.
Vue Property | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
label | String | The text label for the Checkbox. |
left-label | Boolean | Set to true , if the label should be placed to the left of the Checkbox. |
checked-icon | String | Optional icon to use, when the Checkbox is checked. |
unchecked-icon | String | Optional icon to use, when the Checkbox is not checked. |
color | String | Color from Quasar Color Palette. |
disable | Boolean | Set to true , to disable the Checkbox. |
val | Object | Used to modify the v-model of the Checkbox when using an Array as v-model . |
Vue Events
Vue Event | Description |
---|---|
@blur | Triggered, when Checkbox loses focus. |
@focus | Triggered, when Checkbox gains focus. |
Array as Model
If you have a number of checkboxes for a selection, use an array as the model object and specify val
property.<q-checkbox v-model="selection" val="one" label="One" />
<br><br>
<q-checkbox v-model="selection" val="two" label="Two" />
<br><br>
<q-checkbox v-model="selection" val="three" label="Three" /><script>
export default {
data () {
return {
selection: ['one', 'two', 'three']
}
}
}
</script>
Ticking all Checkboxes will make selection
scope variable to be ['one', 'two', 'three']
. Unticking all Checkboxes will result in selection
being an empty array []
.
More Examples
There are a number of props, which are available to help quickly format a Checkbox. An interesting feature of Checkbox is the ripple effect that user gets when clicking/tapping on it to change its state.
Specific Icons
Sometimes, you might need a checkbox simply as a type of button, to maybe turn something on or off. You can do this with the checked-icon
and unchecked-icon
props.<!-- a happy and unhappy smiley, maybe for a one-touch satisfaction feedback -->
<q-checkbox
v-model="checked"
checked-icon="sentiment very satisfied"
unchecked-icon="sentiment very dissatisfied"
/>
<!-- an eye and a crossed out eye to indicate visibility -->
<q-checkbox
v-model="checked"
checked-icon="visibility"
unchecked-icon="visibility_off"
/>
Coloring
Use the color
prop to control the Checkbox color.<q-checkbox v-model="checked" color="teal" />
<q-checkbox v-model="checked" color="orange" />
<q-checkbox v-model="checked" color="dark" />
Label Position
Use the left-label
prop, to move the label to the left of Checkbox.<q-checkbox
v-model="checked"
color="teal"
left-label
label="Checkbox Label"
/>
Usage Inside of a List
In the following example we use the Right side of QItems to insert Checkbox, but it works anywhere.<q-list link>
<!--
Rendering a <label> tag (notice tag="label")
so the whole QItem will respond to clicks to
change Checkbox state.
-->
<q-item tag="label">
<q-item-side>
<q-checkbox v-model="checked"></q-checkbox>
</q-item-side>
<q-item-main>
<q-item-tile label>Events and reminders</q-item-tile>
</q-item-main>
</q-item>
<q-item tag="label">
<q-item-side>
<q-checkbox v-model="checked"></q-checkbox>
</q-item-side>
<q-item-main>
<q-item-tile label>Events and reminders</q-item-tile>
<q-item-tile sublabel>Lorem ipsum</q-item-tile>
</q-item-main>
</q-item>
<q-item tag="label" multiline>
<q-item-side>
<q-checkbox v-model="checked"></q-checkbox>
</q-item-side>
<q-item-main>
<q-item-tile label>Events and reminders</q-item-tile>
