14 wxToggleButton is a button that stays pressed when clicked by the user. In
15 other words, it is similar to \helpref{wxCheckBox}{wxcheckbox} in
16 functionality but looks like a \helpref{wxButton}{wxbutton}.
17
18 Since wxWidgets version 2.9.0 this control emits a update UI event.
19
20 You can see wxToggleButton in action in the sixth page of the
21 \helpref{controls}{samplecontrols} sample.
