About This Feature

Overview

Toggle Button is a control feature in WPS Presentation for Windows. It lets you insert a button into a slide and switch it between pressed and unpressed states. After the button is clicked, its state can be used to represent results such as enabled or disabled.

Core capabilities include:

Insert a toggle button from the Developer tab and draw it on a slide.
Set common properties such as Caption, Value, and Name in the control properties panel.
Use the Value property to identify the current state, where True means pressed and False means unpressed.

This feature is suitable for interactive presentations, training slides with state feedback, and pages that need a visible on/off style control.

Compare with Alternatives

Dimension	WPS	Microsoft	Google	Notion	Adobe
Capability Summary	Lets you insert a toggle button control in a presentation and set properties such as Caption, Value, and Name to represent pressed and unpressed states.	Microsoft documents describe adding Toggle Button and other ActiveX controls from the Developer tab, then editing them in design mode and the Properties dialog.	Google Slides official materials focus on extending presentations with Apps Script and add-ons, rather than providing a built-in toggle button control.	Notion provides button blocks that can insert blocks, edit pages, send notifications, or open pages and URLs, but they are not slide-based state controls.	Adobe Acrobat lets users add buttons to PDF forms and configure appearance, labels, icons, and actions for document workflows.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: It is directly oriented to slide editing scenarios and supports a visible pressed or unpressed state through the Value property in one control.	Compared with WPS: the official guidance centers on ActiveX controls and design mode in Office, and Microsoft also notes that ActiveX controls do not work in newer versions of Excel for security reasons.	Compared with WPS: interaction is mainly extended through scripts or add-ons instead of a ready-to-use toggle button control in the presentation editor.	Compared with WPS: button blocks are better suited to page automation and workspace actions, not a presentation control with a toggle state.	Compared with WPS: Acrobat buttons are designed for PDF forms and action triggers rather than slide-based toggle state controls.

Overall Conclusion
If you need a button control that can switch states directly inside a presentation, WPS is closer to that editing scenario. Other products also provide button-related features, but they are more focused on forms, automation, or scripted extensions rather than a slide control with a pressed or unpressed state.
