Switch Component

Switches are visual toggles that can be switched on or off.

Switches are often useful for boolean configuration options. They are very similar to checkboxes.

Properties

Visible

PropisVisible
Typeboolean
Defaulttrue

Whether or not this node is visible.

Width

The minimum width of the node. When this node is in a grid layout, this property is ignored.

Max Width

PropmaxWidth
Typestring
Defaultundefined

Height

Propheight
Typestring
Default32px

The height of the node. When this node is in a grid layout, this should be done using unitless grid row units (specifying 4 will become grid-row-end: span 4). When this node is in a stack layout, the height can be specified using CSS units (e.g. 100px or 100%), or be left unitless to be treated as flex-grow for the node.

Min Height

PropminHeight
Typestring
Defaultundefined

The minimum height of the node. When this node is in a grid layout, this property is ignored.
