- checked - boolean
- text - text to use with the checkbox
- fillColor - Color of the checkbox element
- boxType - Either 'square' (default) or 'circle'. It's recommended to use 'circle' for radiobuttons. Note that plugin version 3.0.0 switched the default for iOS to 'square' for alignment with Android. Still want
circle
on iOS andsquare
on Android? Just make theboxType
value conditional.
- checkedChange - Use a reference to the CheckBox component to grab it's
checked
property when this event fires to see the new value.
- toggle() - Change the checked state of the view to the inverse of its current state.
- color - set the text label color
- font-size - checkbox is sized to text from here : default 15
- border-width - set the line width of the checkbox element: iOS only
- checkStyle - set to the name of your drawable
- checkPadding - set the padding of the checkbox
Add the following to app/App_Resources/Android/drawable/checkbox_grey.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_enabled="false" android:state_checked="true" android:drawable="@drawable/ic_checkbox_checked_incomplete" />
<item android:state_enabled="false" android:state_checked="false" android:drawable="@drawable/ic_checkbox_grey_incomplete" />
<item android:state_checked="true" android:drawable="@drawable/ic_checkbox_checked_grey"/>
<item android:state_checked="false" android:drawable="@drawable/ic_checkbox_grey" />
</selector>
Want to use radiobutton behavior for your checkboxes (only one option possible within a group)?
