How input controls work

1. Use EditText for entering text using keyboard


2. Use SeekBar for sliding left or right to a setting
3. Combine CheckBox elements for choosing more than one option
4. Combine RadioButton elements into RadioGroup — user makes
only one choice
5. Use Switch for tapping on or off
6. Use Spinner for choosing a single item from a list
14
UI elements for providing choices
● CheckBox and RadioButton

● ToggleButton and Switch

● Spinner

15
CheckBox

• User can select any number of choices


• Checking one box does not uncheck another
• Users expect checkboxes in a vertical list
• Commonly used with a Submit button
• Every CheckBox is a View and can have
an onClick handler

16
RadioButton
• Put RadioButton elements in a RadioGroup in a vertical
list (horizontally if labels are short)
• User can select only one of the choices
• Checking one unchecks all others in group
• Each RadioButton can have onClick
handler
• Commonly used with a Submit button
for the RadioGroup

17
Toggle buttons and switches
• User can switch between on and off
• Use android:onClick for click handler

Toggle buttons

Switches

Classwork
