wxCheckBox (wx v2.5.4)

Copy Markdown View Source

A checkbox is a labelled box which by default is either on (checkmark is visible) or off (no checkmark).

Optionally (when the wxCHK_3STATE style flag is set) it can have a third state, called the mixed or undetermined state. Often this is used as a "Does Not Apply" state.

Styles

This class supports the following styles:

  • wxCHK_2STATE: Create a 2-state checkbox. This is the default.

  • wxCHK_3STATE: Create a 3-state checkbox. Not implemented in wxGTK1.

  • wxCHK_ALLOW_3RD_STATE_FOR_USER: By default a user can't set a 3-state checkbox to the third state. It can only be done from code. Using this flags allows the user to set the checkbox to the third state by clicking.

  • wxALIGN_RIGHT: Makes the text appear on the left of the checkbox.
