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 You can see wxToggleButton in action in the sixth page of the
19 \helpref{controls}{samplecontrols} sample.
20
21 {\bf NB:} This class is only available under wxMSW and wxGTK currently.
