SplitCheckboxButton

Android

Component in Wear Material 3 Compose

The Wear Material [SplitCheckboxButton] offers slots and a specific layout for a label and secondaryLabel. The secondaryLabel is optional. The items are laid out with a column containing the two label slots and a Checkbox at the end.

The [SplitCheckboxButton] is Stadium shaped. The label should take no more than 3 lines of text. The secondary label should take no more than 2 lines of text. With localisation and/or large font sizes, the [SplitCheckboxButton] height adjusts to accommodate the contents. The label and secondary label are start aligned by default.

A [SplitCheckboxButton] has two tappable areas, one tap area for the labels and another for the checkbox. The [onContainerClick] listener will be associated with the main body of the [SplitCheckboxButton] and the [onCheckedChange] listener associated with the checkbox area only.
