Toggle

Hide, switch or change the appearance of different contents through a toggle.

# Usage

To apply this component, just add the uk-toggle="target: #ID" attribute to a <button> or <a> element. You can use any selector with the toggle attribute.

The toggle can be used to add or remove a class or attribute from the item. By default, it adds the hidden attribute to hide the element.

<button uk-toggle="target: #my-id" type="button"></button>
<p id="my-id"></p>

<div>
    <button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" uk-toggle="target: #toggle-usage">Toggle</button>
    <p id="toggle-usage">What's up?</p>
</div>

# Multiple items

You can also toggle multiple items at the same time. Just add the target: SELECTOR option to the uk-toggle attribute and use a selector that applies to all items.

<button type="button" uk-toggle="target: .my-class"></button>
<p class="my-class"></p>
<p class="my-class"></p>

<button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" uk-toggle="target: .toggle">Toggle</button>
<p class="toggle">Hello!</p>
<p class="toggle" hidden>Bazinga!</p>

Note In this example we added the hidden attribute to one of the items, so that only the other item will be shown. The toggle will switch visible states between both elements.

# Custom class

If you don't want to toggle the hidden attribute, you can also toggle a custom class. Just add the cls: CLASS option to the uk-toggle attribute. In this example we used the .uk-card-primary class to switch between different card styles.

<button type="button" uk-toggle="target: #my-id; cls: uk-card-primary"></button>
<p id="my-id" class="uk-card uk-card-default"></p>

<button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" uk-toggle="target: #toggle-custom; cls: uk-card-primary">Toggle</button>
<div id="toggle-custom" class="uk-card uk-card-default uk-card-body uk-margin-small">Custom class</div>

# Animations

The Toggle component allows you to add animations to items when toggling between them. Just add one of the .uk-animation-* classes from the Animation component to the animation parameter. The class will be applied to the in as well as the out animation. If you prefer a different out animation, just add another class.

<button type="button" uk-toggle="target: #my-id; animation: uk-animation-fade"></button>
<p id="my-id"></p>

<button href="#toggle-animation" class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" uk-toggle="target: #toggle-animation; animation: uk-animation-fade">Toggle</button>
<div id="toggle-animation" class="uk-card uk-card-default uk-card-body uk-margin-small">Animation</div>

# Multiple animations

You can also apply multiple animations from the Animation component. That way you can add different in and out animations.

<button type="button" uk-toggle="target: #my-id; animation: uk-animation-slide-left, uk-animation-slide-bottom"></button>
<p id="my-id"></p>

<button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" uk-toggle="target: #toggle-animation-multiple; animation:  uk-animation-slide-left, uk-animation-slide-bottom">Toggle</button>
<div id="toggle-animation-multiple" class="uk-card uk-card-default uk-card-body uk-margin-small">Animation</div>

# Queued animations

When toggling multiple items with an animation, you might want to wait until the first animation has run through before animating the second item in. To do so, just add the queued: true option to the uk-toggle attribute.

<button type="button" uk-toggle="target: .my-class; animation: uk-animation-fade; queued: true"></button>
<p class="my-class"></p>
<p class="my-class"></p>

<button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" uk-toggle="target: .toggle-animation-queued; animation: uk-animation-fade; queued: true; duration: 300">Toggle</button>
<p class="toggle-animation-queued uk-card uk-card-default uk-card-body uk-margin-small">Animation</p>
<p class="toggle-animation-queued uk-card uk-card-primary uk-card-body uk-margin-small" hidden>Animation</p>

# Modes

A toggle can be triggered in different ways. Just add the mode option to the uk-toggle attribute and apply one of these values.

Value	Description
`hover`	The toggle will be triggered on hover.
`click`	The toggle will be triggered on click. This is the default value.
`click, hover`	The toggle will be triggered on click and hover.
`media`	The toggling behavior depends on the viewport width. More information.

<button type="button" uk-toggle="target: #my-id; mode: hover"></button>
<p id="my-id"></p>

<button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button" uk-toggle="target: #toggle-hover; mode: hover">hover</button>
<p id="toggle-hover">What's up?</p>

# Media

When using the media mode, the media option with one of possible values has to be added as well. For example, add a number in pixels, e.g. 640, or a breakpoint, e.g. @s, @m, @l or @xl. Without the target option, the toggle applies the toggled state to itself. This means it will switch between the different states that are defined in the cls option depending on the viewport width that it is displayed on.

<!-- The primary modifier will only be applied on large screens -->

<div class="uk-card uk-card-default" uk-toggle="cls: uk-card-primary; mode: media; media: @l"></div>

<div class="uk-card uk-card-default uk-card-body uk-width-medium" uk-toggle="cls: uk-card-primary; mode: media; media: @l">
    Primary on large screens
</div>

Note The initial toggle state depends on the cls option. It is either the first given class in the space separated list or if set to false, the hidden attribute. If more than one class is given, the other classes are simply being toggled on state change.

# Component options

Any of these options can be applied to the component attribute. Separate multiple options with a semicolon. Learn more
