## Usage
Use icon buttons to display actions in a compact layout. Icon buttons can
represent opening actions such as opening an overflow menu or search, or
represent binary actions that can be toggled on and off, such as favorite or
bookmark.
Icon buttons can be grouped together or they can stand alone.
To use icons by name, see the [Icon](icon.md#usage) documentation for loading
the icon font.
<!-- no-catalog-start -->
![A row of icon buttons](images/iconbutton/usage.webp "Icon buttons can be used within other components, such as a bottom app bar")
<!-- no-catalog-end -->
<!-- catalog-include "figures/iconbutton/usage.html" -->
```html
<md-icon-button>
<md-icon>check</md-icon>
</md-icon-button>
<md-filled-icon-button>
<md-icon>check</md-icon>
</md-filled-icon-button>
<md-filled-tonal-icon-button>
<md-icon>check</md-icon>
</md-filled-tonal-icon-button>
<md-outlined-icon-button>
<md-icon>check</md-icon>
</md-outlined-icon-button>
```
### Links
Add an
[`href`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/a#href)<!-- {.external} -->
and optionally a
[`target`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/a#target)<!-- {.external} -->
attribute to turn the icon button into a link.
```html
<md-icon-button href="https://google.com">
<md-icon>check</md-icon>
</md-icon-button>
```
### Toggle
<!-- no-catalog-start -->
![Two rows of toggling icon buttons, the top row is unselected and the bottom
row is
selected](images/iconbutton/usage-toggle.webp "Unselected and Selected Icon Button")
<!-- no-catalog-end -->
<!-- catalog-include "figures/iconbutton/usage-toggle.html" -->
Toggle icon buttons allow a single choice to be selected or deselected, such as
adding or removing something from favorites.
Add a second icon in the `slot="selected"` slot to change the icon when
selected. Toggle icon buttons can be pre-selected by adding the `selected`
attribute.
```html
<div>
<md-icon-button toggle>
<md-icon>close</md-icon>
<md-icon slot="selected">check</md-icon>
</md-icon-button>
<md-filled-icon-button toggle>
<md-icon>close</md-icon>
<md-icon slot="selected">check</md-icon>
</md-filled-icon-button>
<md-filled-tonal-icon-button toggle>
<md-icon>close</md-icon>
<md-icon slot="selected">check</md-icon>
</md-filled-tonal-icon-button>
<md-outlined-icon-button toggle>
<md-icon>close</md-icon>
<md-icon slot="selected">check</md-icon>
</md-outlined-icon-button>
</div>
<div>
<md-icon-button toggle selected>
<md-icon>close</md-icon>
<md-icon slot="selected">check</md-icon>
</md-icon-button>
<md-filled-icon-button toggle selected>
<md-icon>close</md-icon>
<md-icon slot="selected">check</md-icon>
</md-filled-icon-button>
<md-filled-tonal-icon-button toggle selected>
<md-icon>close</md-icon>
<md-icon slot="selected">check</md-icon>
</md-filled-tonal-icon-button>
<md-outlined-icon-button toggle selected>
<md-icon>close</md-icon>
<md-icon slot="selected">check</md-icon>
</md-outlined-icon-button>
</div>
```
## Accessibility
Add an
[`aria-label`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Accessibility/ARIA/Attributes/aria-label)<!-- {.external} -->
attribute to icon buttons whose labels need a more descriptive label.
```html
<md-icon-button aria-label="Search for Contact">
<md-icon>search</md-icon>
</md-icon-button>
```
### Toggle
Add an `aria-label-selected` attribute to toggle buttons whose labels need a
more descriptive label when selected.
```html
<md-icon-button toggle
aria-label="Unselected"
aria-label-selected="Selected">
<md-icon>close</md-icon>
<md-icon slot="selected">check</md-icon>
</md-icon-button>
```
### Focusable and disabled
By default, disabled icon buttons are not focusable with the keyboard, while
"soft-disabled" icon buttons are. Some use cases encourage focusability of
disabled toolbar items to increase their discoverability.
See the
[ARIA guidelines on focusability of disabled controls](https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/practices/keyboard-interface/#kbd_disabled_controls)<!-- {.external} -->
for guidance on when this is recommended.
```html
<div role="toolbar">
<md-icon-button aria-label="Copy">
<md-icon>copy</md-icon>
</md-icon-button>
<md-icon-button aria-label="Cut">
<md-icon>cut</md-icon>
</md-icon-button>
<!--
This icon button is disabled but kept focusable to improve its
discoverability in the toolbar.
-->
<md-icon-button aria-label="Paste" soft-disabled>
<md-icon>paste</md-icon>
</md-icon-button>
</div>
```
## Icon Button
Standard icon buttons do not have a background or outline, and have the lowest
emphasis of the icon buttons.
<!-- no-catalog-start -->
![A check icon](images/iconbutton/usage-standard.webp "Standard Icon Button with Check icon")
<!-- no-catalog-end -->
<!-- catalog-include "figures/iconbutton/usage-standard.html" -->
```html
<md-icon-button>
<md-icon>check</md-icon>
</md-icon-button>
```
## Filled Icon Button
<!-- go/md-filled-icon-button -->
<!-- no-catalog-start -->
![A circular button with a check icon](images/iconbutton/usage-filled.webp "Filled Icon Button")
<!-- no-catalog-end -->
<!-- catalog-include "figures/iconbutton/usage-filled.html" -->
Filled icon buttons have higher visual impact and are best for high emphasis
actions.
```html
<md-filled-icon-button>
<md-icon>check</md-icon>
</md-filled-icon-button>
```
## Filled Tonal Icon Button
<!-- go/md-filled-tonal-icon-button -->
<!-- no-catalog-start -->
![A filled tonal icon button with a check icon](images/iconbutton/usage-filled-tonal.webp "Filled Tonal Icon Button")
<!-- no-catalog-end -->
<!-- catalog-include "figures/iconbutton/usage-filled-tonal.html" -->
Filled tonal icon buttons are a middle ground between filled and outlined icon
buttons. They're useful in contexts where the button requires slightly more
emphasis than an outline would give, such as a secondary action paired with a
high emphasis action.
```html
<md-filled-tonal-icon-button>
<md-icon>check</md-icon>
</md-filled-tonal-icon-button>
```
## Outlined Icon Button
<!-- go/md-outlined-icon-button -->
<!-- no-catalog-start -->
![An outlined circular icon button with a check icon](images/iconbutton/usage-outlined.webp "Outlined Icon button")
<!-- no-catalog-end -->
<!-- catalog-include "figures/iconbutton/usage-outlined.html" -->
Outlined icon buttons are medium-emphasis buttons. They're useful when an icon
button needs more emphasis than a standard icon button but less than a filled or
filled tonal icon button.
```html
<md-outlined-icon-button>
<md-icon>check</md-icon>
</md-outlined-icon-button>
```
## Theming
Icon Button supports [Material theming](../theming/README.md) and can be
customized in terms of color, and shape.
