Button Group

Installation

Composition

Use the following composition to build a ButtonGroup:

ButtonGroup
├── Button or Input
├── ButtonGroupSeparator
└── ButtonGroupText

Accessibility

• The ButtonGroup component has the role attribute set to group.
• Use Tab to navigate between the buttons in the group.
• Use aria-label or aria-labelledby to label the button group.

<ButtonGroup aria-label="Button group">
  <Button>Button 1</Button>
  <Button>Button 2</Button>
</ButtonGroup>

ButtonGroup vs ToggleGroup

• Use the ButtonGroup component when you want to group buttons that perform an action.
• Use the ToggleGroup component when you want to group buttons that toggle a state.

Examples

Orientation

Set the orientation prop to change the button group layout.

Size

Control the size of buttons using the size prop on individual buttons.

Nested

Nest <ButtonGroup> components to create button groups with spacing.

Separator

The ButtonGroupSeparator component visually divides buttons within a group.

Buttons with variant outline do not need a separator since they have a border. For other variants, a separator is recommended to improve the visual hierarchy. ButtonGroupSeparator automatically inherits the correct color for each adjacent button variant.

Split

Create a split button group by adding two buttons separated by a ButtonGroupSeparator.

Input

Wrap an Input component with buttons.

Input Group

Wrap an InputGroup component to create complex input layouts.

Dropdown Menu

Create a split button group with a DropdownMenu component.

Select

Pair with a Select component.

Popover

Use with a Popover component.

API Reference

ButtonGroup

The ButtonGroup component is a container that groups related buttons together with consistent styling.

Renders a <div role="group"> and accepts all standard div props.

<ButtonGroup>
  <Button>Button 1</Button>
  <Button>Button 2</Button>
</ButtonGroup>

Nest multiple button groups to create complex layouts with spacing. See the nested example for more details.

<ButtonGroup>
  <ButtonGroup />
  <ButtonGroup />
</ButtonGroup>

ButtonGroupSeparator

The ButtonGroupSeparator component visually divides buttons within a group. It extends the Separator component and automatically adapts its color to the adjacent button variant.

<ButtonGroup>
  <Button>Button 1</Button>
  <ButtonGroupSeparator />
  <Button>Button 2</Button>
</ButtonGroup>

ButtonGroupText

Use this component to display text within a button group.

<ButtonGroup>
  <ButtonGroupText>Text</ButtonGroupText>
  <Button>Button</Button>
</ButtonGroup>

Use the render prop to render a custom component as the text, for example a label.

import { ButtonGroupText } from "@/components/ui/button-group"
import { Input } from "@/components/ui/input"
import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label"

export function ButtonGroupTextDemo() {
  return (
    <ButtonGroup>
      <ButtonGroupText render={<Label htmlFor="name" />}>Text</ButtonGroupText>
      <Input placeholder="Type something here..." id="name" />
    </ButtonGroup>
  )
}
