#Toggle switch how to#
This example shows how to add a Toggled event handler in XAML and in code. In other cases, you can handle the Toggled event to respond to changes in the state. When the switch is used to control the state of another binary property, you can use a binding as shown here. Use the IsOn property to determine the state of the switch. Add the toggle switch to a parent container in the visual tree. ToggleSwitch lightToggle = new ToggleSwitch() Here's how to create the same toggle switch in code. This XAML creates the toggle switch shown previously. Here's how to create a simple toggle switch.

Get the app from the Microsoft Store or get the source code on GitHub The WinUI 3 Gallery app includes interactive examples of most WinUI 3 controls, features, and functionality. Open the WinUI 3 Gallery app and see the ToggleSwitch in action. Avoid replacing the On and Off labels unless you must stick with the default labels unless the situation calls for custom ones.In general, if the words "On" and "Off" don't describe the action tied to a toggle switch, you might need a different control. If you replace them, use a single word that more accurately describes the toggle. Use the default On and Off labels when you can only replace them when it's necessary for the toggle switch to make sense.Use check boxes when the user can select multiple items that are related to a single setting or feature. For example, if the user must click a "submit" or "next" button to apply changes, use a check box. Use a checkbox when the user has to perform extra steps for changes to be effective. Use check boxes for optional ("nice to have") items. In this example, it's clear with the toggle switch that the kitchen lights are set to "On." But with the checkbox, the user needs to think about whether the lights are on now or whether they need to check the box to turn the lights on. Use a toggle switch for binary settings when changes become effective immediately after the user changes them. To decide which control would work better, follow these tips: For example, "WiFi" or "Kitchen lights." Choosing between toggle switch and check boxįor some actions, either a toggle switch or a check box might work. To make the toggle switch easy to understand, label it with one or two words, preferably nouns, that describe the functionality it controls. Think of the toggle switch as a physical power switch for a device: you flip it on or off when you want to enable or disable the action performed by the device. Use a toggle switch for binary operations that take effect right after the user flips the toggle switch. To create a toggle switch control, you use the ToggleSwitch class. Use toggle switch controls to present users with two mutually exclusive options (such as on/off), where choosing an option provides immediate results.
The toggle switch represents a physical switch that allows users to turn things on or off, like a light switch.
