Description

The classcheck-button inherits most of its behavior from the classbutton. Note that it is normally best to use acheck-button-panel rather than make the individual buttons yourself, as the button panel provides functionality for handling groups of buttons. However,check-button can be used if you need to have more control over the button's behavior.

Example

The following code creates a check button.

(setq button (capi:contain
              (make-instance 'capi:check-button 
                             :text "Press Me")))

: The button can be selected and deselected using this code.

(setf (capi:button-selected button) t)

(setf (capi:button-selected button) nil)

: The following code disables and enables the button.

(setf (capi:button-enabled button) nil)

(setf (capi:button-enabled button) t)
