Introduction

Button items summary

The igRadialMenu’s button items are ordinary items, which may be clicked to perform an action. The button items can include text and/or icons. Additionally, button items can have Sub-Items, and in this case the parent item will have an arrow button on the outer ring allowing the user to navigate the Sub-Items group.

You may configure button items as checkbox items, in which case an arc indicates their checked state is within the items area just inside the outer ring.

Button items can be configured as radio button items and there are two modes in which they can operate:

• Radio button group with at least one checked item
• Radio button group with no checked items

The following screenshot shows different button item types:

1. Plain button items
2. Checkbox button item in checked state
3. Arrows showing that these color items have Sub-Items
4. Radio buttons group with the second choice checked
