Igx-switch width
posted

Hi, does anyone know the best way to change the width of the igx-switch component? And is there a way to make the length of the switch longer and the circular switch button smaller?

    Hello,

    After investigating this matter further and doing some research, changing the width of the switch checkbox has been determined to be a feature request. You can submit feature request in our GitHub repository here.

    Remember when submitting your idea to explain the context in which a feature would be used and why it is needed as well as anything that would prevent you from accomplishing this today. You can even add screenshots to build a stronger case.

    This will give you the opportunity do directly communicate with our development team regarding the issue and get notifications whenever a new information is available.

    Alternatively, you can play a bit with the css classes, however here you will have to adjust values yourself. Here is a sample of the classes that need to be overwritten to achieve wider slide on the icon with smaller dot inside:

    :host {
        ::ng-deep {

            // this is for the dimensions of the background slider
           .igx-switch__composite{
            width: 3.25rem;
            height: 0.875rem;
           }
           // here you can adjust the circular switch and make it smaller if needed
           .igx-switch__composite-thumb {
            width: 15px;
            height: 15px;
            min-width: 10px;
            border-radius: 50%;
            display: inline-block;
            border-color: gray;
           }
           // this will control the lenght of the animation between states
           .igx-switch--checked .igx-switch__composite-thumb {
            transform: translateX(2.2rem);
           }
        }
    }

    Please let me know if you need any further assistance.
