[mathieu]

Hi,
I would like to be able to check/uncheck the switch with the keyboard
but nothing bind to the switch. i tried : 

scope.toggleSwitch.bind("keyup", toggleKeyUp);
scope.toggleSwitch.bind("focus", toggleFocus);
scope.toggleSwitch.bind("click", toggleclick);

any idea wuld be appreciate thanks

Hello Мathieu,

This occurs because the rendered switch is actually a span element which does not have key events.

The click event can be attached, but the widget is already toggling values on click:

Let me know if you need information on this matter.

So does this mean there's no way to have the user alter the state of the switch with the keyboard?

Hello, Barry,

This could be done by for example placing the switch in a container and attaching the key events to the container.

Then when the events are fired to use the desired method of the Switch to change its state:
