Toggle Button using Mono for Android

Lets learn how to create toggle button using Mono for Android.

Toggle Button : Displays checked/unchecked states using a light indicator

Step for creating Toggle Button

1. Start new Android application
   
   
    
2. Go to Main.axml and make following changes
   
   
   
   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
   <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
       android:orientation="vertical"
       android:layout_width="fill_parent"
       android:layout_height="fill_parent"
       >
     <ToggleButton android:id="@+id/togglebutton"
             android:layout_width="wrap_content"
             android:layout_height="wrap_content"
             android:textOn="Sound on"
             android:textOff="Sound off"/>
   </LinearLayout>
    
3. Go to Activity1.cs class make following changes
   
   
   
       public class Activity1 : Activity
       {       
           protected override void OnCreate(Bundle bundle)
           {
               base.OnCreate(bundle);
               
               SetContentView(Resource.Layout.Main);
               
               ToggleButton togglebutton = FindViewById<ToggleButton>(Resource.Id.togglebutton);
    
               togglebutton.Click += (a, b) =>
               {               
                   if (togglebutton.Checked)
                       Toast.MakeText(this, "Checked", ToastLength.Short).Show();
                   else
                       Toast.MakeText(this, "Not checked", ToastLength.Short).Show();
               }; 
           }
       }
   
   As above we create a toggle button and use If-else condition on button click event to check the state of button whether it is clicked or not and shows message and change the view of button according the state
    
4. Run the application
   
   
   
   After click on button:
   
   
   
   Again click on button:
   
   
   

Thank You.....
