Disable hover for button

Is there a simple way to disable the hover events for a button?

Hi @Just Simeon. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- Yes, there is a simple way to disable hover events for a button in Nuxt UI. You can use the disabled prop on the UButton component to achieve this. Here's how you can do it:

<template>
  <UButton disabled>Button</UButton>
</template>

<template>
  <UButton disabled>Button</UButton>
</template>

By setting the disabled prop, the button will be disabled, which inherently prevents hover events from triggering. This approach not only disables hover effects but also prevents the button from being clickable. The disabled prop applies specific CSS classes that handle the disabled state, including preventing hover effects. According to the Nuxt UI documentation, the disabled state applies the following classes:

disabled:cursor-not-allowed disabled:opacity-75 aria-disabled:cursor-not-allowed aria-disabled:opacity-75

disabled:cursor-not-allowed disabled:opacity-75 aria-disabled:cursor-not-allowed aria-disabled:opacity-75

These classes ensure that the button appears visually disabled and doesn't respond to hover events Components > Props (https://ui.nuxt.com/components/button#props). If you need more fine-grained control over the button's appearance and behavior, you can customize the button's styles using the ui prop or by creating a custom button component based on your specific requirements. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai the button should still work, I just want to prevent things like changing the color on hover

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: Sorry @Just Simeon, I am experiencing especially high traffic right now, please try again. :technologist:

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I understand you want to keep the button functional while preventing visual changes on hover, such as color changes. Unfortunately, the Nuxt UI Button component doesn't have a built-in prop to specifically disable hover effects while keeping the button active. However, I can suggest a workaround using custom CSS classes. You can override the default hover styles by adding your own CSS class to the UButton component. Here's an approach you could take: 1. Create a custom CSS class that nullifies the hover effects. 2. Apply this class to the UButton using the class prop. Here's an example of how you might implement this:

<template>
  <UButton class="no-hover">Button</UButton>
</template>

<style scoped>
.no-hover:hover {
  /* Override hover styles here */
  background-color: inherit !important;
  color: inherit !important;
}
</style>

<template>
  <UButton class="no-hover">Button</UButton>
</template>

<style scoped>
.no-hover:hover {
  /* Override hover styles here */
  background-color: inherit !important;
  color: inherit !important;
}
</style>

In this example, the no-hover class is applied to the button. The CSS then overrides the hover styles, keeping the background color and text color the same as the non-hovered state. Please note that this approach might need adjustments based on the specific color and variant you're using for your button, as different combinations have different hover styles Components > Props (https://ui.nuxt.com/components/button#props). If you need more control, you might want to consider creating a custom button component that extends the UButton functionality while allowing you to fine-tune its behavior and appearance. Remember, this is a custom solution and not a built-in feature of Nuxt UI's Button component. Always test thoroughly to ensure it works as expected across different scenarios and doesn't conflict with other styles or functionality. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai tell me how to do it via the :ui prop

kapa.ai•4w ago

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Certainly! You can use the :ui prop to customize the button's appearance, including disabling hover effects. This approach allows you to modify the button's styles without creating additional CSS classes. Here's how you can do it using the :ui prop:

<template>
  <UButton
    :ui="{
      base: 'group relative flex items-center justify-center',
      rounded: 'rounded-md',
      padding: 'px-4 py-2',
      font: 'font-medium',
      ring: 'focus:ring-2 focus:ring-primary-500 dark:focus:ring-primary-400',
      active: 'active:bg-primary-600 dark:active:bg-primary-500',
      inactive: 'bg-primary-500 dark:bg-primary-400 text-white dark:text-gray-900'
    }"
  >
    Button
  </UButton>
</template>

<template>
  <UButton
    :ui="{
      base: 'group relative flex items-center justify-center',
      rounded: 'rounded-md',
      padding: 'px-4 py-2',
      font: 'font-medium',
      ring: 'focus:ring-2 focus:ring-primary-500 dark:focus:ring-primary-400',
      active: 'active:bg-primary-600 dark:active:bg-primary-500',
      inactive: 'bg-primary-500 dark:bg-primary-400 text-white dark:text-gray-900'
    }"
  >
    Button
  </UButton>
</template>

In this example, we're overriding the default UI configuration for the button. The key here is that we're not including any hover-specific classes in the ui object. By omitting these, we effectively prevent the button from changing its appearance on hover. The ui prop allows you to customize various aspects of the button's appearance Getting-started > Components > ui prop (https://ui.nuxt.com/getting-started/theming#ui-prop). In this case, we're defining: - base: The basic layout of the button - rounded: The border radius - padding: The internal spacing - font: The font weight - ring: The focus ring style - active: The style when the button is being clicked - inactive: The default style of the button Note that we've removed any hover-related classes that would normally be present in the button's default configuration. This approach keeps the button functional while preventing visual changes on hover. Remember, you may need to adjust these styles based on your specific needs and the overall design of your application. Also, keep in mind that this method overrides the default styles, so you might need to add back some classes that you want to keep from the original design. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

There must be a simpler way that's huge

Omnislash•4w ago

Did you try to just override the hover state on buttons with hover:none in the nuxtui config? I'm not at home atm so can't check before proposing the solution sorry
