Gets or sets a Boolean value that indicates whether a toggle button is selected. A value of <code>true</code> indicates that the button is selected; a value of <code>false</code> indicates that it is not. This property has no effect if the <code>toggle</code> property is not set to <code>true</code>. <p>For a CheckBox component, this value indicates whether the box is checked. For a RadioButton component, this value indicates whether the component is selected.</p> <p>This value changes when the user clicks the component but can also be changed programmatically. If the <code>toggle</code> property is set to <code>true</code>, changing this property causes a <code>change</code> event object to be dispatched.</p> @default false @includeExample examples/LabelButton.toggle.1.as -noswf

Gets or sets a Boolean value that indicates whether the <code>buttonDown</code> event is dispatched more than one time when the user holds the mouse button down over the component.
