jQWidgets jqxButtonGroup theme Property

Last Updated : 21 Oct, 2021

jQWidgets is a JavaScript framework for making web-based applications for PC and mobile devices. It is a very powerful, optimized, platform-independent, and widely supported framework. The jqxButtonGroup is used to illustrate a jQuery widget that generates a group of buttons that functions like the normal button, radio buttons, or checkboxes.

The theme property is used to set or return the theme for the jqxButtonGroup widget. It accepts string type value and its default value is empty (‘ ‘). In order to use this property, we need to incorporate the theme stylesheet i.e. ( jqx.energyblue.css ) into the header section. The theme file is included after the jqx.base.css file.

Syntax:

To set the theme property.

$('selector').jqxButtonGroup({ theme: String });

To get the theme property.

var theme = $('selector').jqxButtonGroup('theme');
