Radio states
Radio buttons can be displayed in the standard format or as segmented buttons. When displayed as segmented buttons, they can be in one of the two states: Default and Selected. You can style the control differently in these states.
Use the options in this section to style the control based on its state. You can style the control differently when it is in one of the following states:
- :hover – State of the control when a user points to the control or rests the pointer on the control.
- :focus – State of the control when the field is in focus, for example, the state of a text field when it is ready to accept inputs.
- :active – State of the control when the field is ready to be activated, for example, when a user has clicked the control but has not yet released the mouse button.
You can apply different styles for different states by using one of the following styles. To use the same style for all states, select the Use same styles for hover, focus and active check box.
- Auto – Select this option to apply auto-generated styles for the control in this state. These styles are generated based on the applied control format and the mixins defined within the format.
- Default – Select this option to apply the default browser styles for the states instead of generating the styles based on a skin or defined CSS in the application.
- Custom – Select this option to define your own styles for the element in this state.
