class: ButtonBase

[119:7] extends: object

ButtonBase is the abstract base class for all JavaFX button-type controls, including Button, CheckBox, ToggleButton, RadioButton, Hyperlink, MenuButton, and SplitMenuButton. It extends Labeled, adding the concept of an "armed" state that tracks whether the user is actively pressing the button while keeping the pointer over it. Subclasses of ButtonBase all share the armed pseudo-class and the complete Labeled CSS property set.
