Pressed Button Menu

Pressed Button Menu

Hi All,

How can I create a menu that marks the button I pressed?
For example, If I press the button 1, when I'm in page 1, my button 1 stays pressed.

 

Any tips?

Thanks.

That wouldn't be possible with the Option button approach :(

You probably will have to look into customizing the menu Widget or create a construct that tracks your selections in full and then use button with vis/invis or the font awesome extension etc. to create the behavior you want.

Sorry gets a bit complex.

Something that isn't quite the same but that you can use is the Option button or button bar widget.

That widget based on a state based definition will display a number of options that can be selected and will be formatted differently when selected.

you can then use the value behind that in the state based definition to drive the navigation itself

This option button are already available or I must install some extension? 

Already available.

I think I found as "Radio Button".
But I can't put a button-menu, can I?

It won't look exactly the same but with the proper state based definition setup, and then either horizontal or vertical look and using the Container widget you can achieve the function of

Click an item, that value is passed to the container and shows the intended mashup (or use a conversion service in between if needed) and that clicked entry stays 'selected/pushed in'

Hi Pai,

 

I thought I answered you , sorry.
I forgot one very important detail...my menu is a menu of menus. 
In this way, can I mark the first option I click?

Example: I hava a menu X where we have 4 options. Option 1 gives option "a", "b" and "c".
I want to mark Option 1 when "a", "b" or "c" is pressed.

Thanks,

Anselmo.

Too bad but that the stetic will go away with these two approach, right?
