Button Group

The ButtonGroup component can be used to group related buttons.

Basic button group

The buttons can be grouped by wrapping them with the ButtonGroup component. They need to be immediate children.

<ButtonGroup variant="contained" aria-label="outlined primary button group">
  <Button>One</Button>
  <Button>Two</Button>
  <Button>Three</Button>
</ButtonGroup>

<ButtonGroup variant="contained" aria-label="outlined primary button group">

  <Button>Two</Button>
  <Button>Three</Button>
</ButtonGroup>

Vertical group

The button group can be displayed vertically using the orientation prop.

Split button

ButtonGroup can also be used to create a split button. The dropdown can change the button action (as in this example) or be used to immediately trigger a related action.

Disabled elevation

You can remove the elevation with the disableElevation prop.

<ButtonGroup
  disableElevation
  variant="contained"
  aria-label="Disabled elevation buttons"
>
  <Button>One</Button>
  <Button>Two</Button>
</ButtonGroup>

<ButtonGroup
  disableElevation
  variant="contained"
  aria-label="Disabled elevation buttons"
>
  <Button>One</Button>
  <Button>Two</Button>
</ButtonGroup>
