Action button with hold affordance #

The use of the hold-affordance attribute signifies that the <sp-action-button> in question will be delivered with a visual affordance outlining that special interaction with the button will dispatch a longpress event. Via a pointer input, this even will be dispatched when 300ms has passed after a pointerdown event without the presence of a pointerup or pointercancel event. Via the keyboard, an event with a code of Space or or ArrowDown while altKey === true will dispatch the event.

Toggles #

With the application of the toggles attribute, the button will self manage its selected property on click. When this value is updated, a cancellable change event will be dispatched to inform the parent application.

<div
    style="display: grid; grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fill, minmax(100px, 1fr)); gap: 2em;"
>
    <div>
        <sp-field-label for="toggles-default">Standard</sp-field-label>
        <sp-action-button toggles id="toggles-default">
            Toggle button

        </sp-field-label>
        <sp-action-button
            toggles
            emphasized
            quiet
            id="toggles-emphasized-quiet"
        >
            Toggle button
        </sp-action-button>
    </div>
</div>

Handling events #

Events handlers for clicks and other user actions can be registered on a <sp-action-button> as on a standard HTML <button> element.

<sp-button onclick="spAlert(this, '<sp-action-button> clicked!')">
    Click me
</sp-button>

In addition to handling events like a native <button> HTML element, one can also use a <sp-action-button> in place of the <a> HTML element by using the href and optional target attribute.

<sp-action-button
    href="https://github.com/adobe/spectrum-web-components"
    target="_blank"
>
    Click me
</sp-action-button>
