Segment group

Segment Group

Organizes and navigates between sections in a view.

Anatomy

To set up the segmented control correctly, you'll need to understand its anatomy and how we name its parts.

Each part includes a data-part attribute to help identify them in the DOM.

Examples

Learn how to use the SegmentGroup component in your project. Let's take a look at the most basic example:

import { SegmentGroup } from '@ark-ui/react/segment-group'

export const Basic = () => {
  const frameworks = ['React', 'Solid', 'Svelte', 'Vue']
  return (
    <SegmentGroup.Root>
      <SegmentGroup.Indicator />
      {frameworks.map((framework) => (
        <SegmentGroup.Item key={framework} value={framework}>
          <SegmentGroup.ItemText>{framework}</SegmentGroup.ItemText>
          <SegmentGroup.ItemControl />
          <SegmentGroup.ItemHiddenInput />
        </SegmentGroup.Item>
      ))}
    </SegmentGroup.Root>
  )
}

Initial Value

To set a default segment on initial render, use the defaultValue prop:

import { SegmentGroup } from '@ark-ui/react/segment-group'

export const InitialValue = () => {
  const frameworks = ['React', 'Solid', 'Svelte', 'Vue']
  return (
    <SegmentGroup.Root defaultValue="React">
      <SegmentGroup.Indicator />
      {frameworks.map((framework) => (
        <SegmentGroup.Item key={framework} value={framework}>
          <SegmentGroup.ItemText>{framework}</SegmentGroup.ItemText>
          <SegmentGroup.ItemControl />
          <SegmentGroup.ItemHiddenInput />
        </SegmentGroup.Item>
      ))}
    </SegmentGroup.Root>
  )
}

Controlled Segment Group

To create a controlled SegmentGroup component, manage the current selected segment using the value prop and update it when the onValueChange event handler is called:

import { SegmentGroup } from '@ark-ui/react/segment-group'
import { useState } from 'react'

export const Controlled = () => {
  const frameworks = ['React', 'Solid', 'Svelte', 'Vue']
  const [value, setValue] = useState('React')
  return (
    <SegmentGroup.Root value={value} onValueChange={(e) => setValue(e.value)}>
      <SegmentGroup.Indicator />
      {frameworks.map((framework) => (
        <SegmentGroup.Item key={framework} value={framework}>
          <SegmentGroup.ItemText>{framework}</SegmentGroup.ItemText>
          <SegmentGroup.ItemControl />
          <SegmentGroup.ItemHiddenInput />
        </SegmentGroup.Item>
      ))}
    </SegmentGroup.Root>
  )
}

Disabled Segment

To disable a segment, simply pass the disabled prop to the SegmentGroup.Item component:

import { SegmentGroup } from '@ark-ui/react/segment-group'

export const Disabled = () => {
  const frameworks = ['React', 'Solid', 'Svelte', 'Vue']
  return (
    <SegmentGroup.Root defaultValue="React">
      <SegmentGroup.Indicator />
      {frameworks.map((framework) => (
        <SegmentGroup.Item key={framework} value={framework} disabled={framework === 'Svelte'}>
          <SegmentGroup.ItemText>{framework}</SegmentGroup.ItemText>
          <SegmentGroup.ItemControl />
          <SegmentGroup.ItemHiddenInput />
        </SegmentGroup.Item>
      ))}
    </SegmentGroup.Root>
  )
}

Using the Root Provider

The RootProvider component provides a context for the radio-group. It accepts the value of the useRadio-group hook. You can leverage it to access the component state and methods from outside the radio-group.

import { SegmentGroup, useSegmentGroup } from '@ark-ui/react/segment-group'

export const RootProvider = () => {
  const frameworks = ['React', 'Solid', 'Svelte', 'Vue']
  const segmentGroup = useSegmentGroup()

  return (
    <>
      <button onClick={() => segmentGroup.focus()}>Focus</button>

      <SegmentGroup.RootProvider value={segmentGroup}>
        <SegmentGroup.Indicator />
        {frameworks.map((framework) => (
          <SegmentGroup.Item key={framework} value={framework}>
            <SegmentGroup.ItemText>{framework}</SegmentGroup.ItemText>
            <SegmentGroup.ItemControl />
            <SegmentGroup.ItemHiddenInput />
          </SegmentGroup.Item>
        ))}
      </SegmentGroup.RootProvider>
    </>
  )
}

If you're using the RootProvider component, you don't need to use the Root component.
