maemomm provides several Button classes derived from Gtk::Button. These provide features specific to the Hildon framework. These classes are described in detail in the following sub-sections.
Hildon::Button is a clickable button, derived from Gtk::Button, providing both a title and a sub-title (referred to as the value).
Hildon::CheckButton contains a label and a checkbox that remains "pressed-in" when clicked, acting in a similar way to Gtk::CheckButton.
Hildon::PickerButton displays a single item selected from a list. Clicking on the button brings up a Hildon::PickerDialog, allowing selection of a different item. The value sub-title then indicates which item was selected. This behaviour is similar to Gtk::ComboBox in gtkmm.
Hildon::DateButton shows a text label and a date. When clicked it shows a Hildon::PickerDialog containing a Hildon::DateSelector. The value sub-title then indicates which date was selected.
Hildon::TimeButton is similar to Hildon::DateButton, using a time rather than a date, by displaying a Hildon::TimeSelector when clicked. The value sub-title then indicates which time was selected.
A Hildon::Button is the equivalent of a Gtk::Button. As it is derived from Gtk::Button, the API is the same, with some Hildon-specific additions.
The arrangement and size properties of a Hildon::Button are construct-time only. While a Button can contain any valid child widget, by default it contains two labels, a primary title and a secondary value, as opposed to the single label in a Gtk::Button.
This example shows a simple window that contains a Hildon::Button. When clicked, a line of output is sent to the terminal.

Hildon::CheckButton is similar to Gtk::CheckButton.
This example shows a simple window that contains a Hildon::CheckButton. When the button is toggled a line of output is sent to the terminal.

A Hildon::PickerButton widget displays a specified Hildon::PickerDialog when clicked, much like a Gtk::ComboBox in gtkmm.
This example shows a simple window that contains a Hildon::PickerButton. When clicked, a continent is selected from a Hildon::PickerDialog and a line of output is sent to the terminal.

}
A Hildon::DateButton widget shows a text title and a date, and displays a Hildon::PickerDialog when clicked, enabling the user to select a date with a Hildon::DateSelector.
This example shows a simple window that contains a Hildon::DateButton. When a date is selected, the result appears as the value (sub-title) of the DateButton, and a line of output is sent to the terminal.

Hildon::init();
ExampleWindow window;
kit.run(window); //Shows the window and returns when it is closed.
return 0;
}
A Hildon::TimeButton widget shows a text title and a time. When clicked, Hildon::PickerDialog is displayed and the user can select a time with a Hildon::TimeSelector.
This example shows a simple window that contains a Hildon::TimeButton. The time may be selected in steps of five minutes and the result appears as the value (sub-title) of the TimeButton. Selecting a new time sends a line of output to the terminal.
