Floating Action Buttons

If you want a fixed floating action button, you can add multiple actions that will appear on hover. Our demo is in the bottom righthand corner of the page.

                                    
                                        <div class="fixed-action-btn">
                                          <a class="btn-floating btn-large red">
                                            <i class="large material-icons">mode_edit</i>
                                          </a>
                                          <ul>
                                            <li><a class="btn-floating red"><i class="material-icons">insert_chart</i></a></li>
                                            <li><a class="btn-floating yellow darken-1"><i class="material-icons">format_quote</i></a></li>
                                            <li><a class="btn-floating green"><i class="material-icons">publish</i></a></li>
                                            <li><a class="btn-floating blue"><i class="material-icons">attach_file</i></a></li>
                                          </ul>
                                        </div>
                                    
                                
Initialization
                                    
                                        var elem = document.querySelector('.fixed-action-btn');
                                        var instance = M.FloatingActionButton.init(elem, options);

                                          // Or with jQuery

                                        $(document).ready(function(){
                                            $('.fixed-action-btn').floatingActionButton();
                                        });
                                    
                                
Options
Name Type Default Description
direction String 'top' Direction FAB menu opens. Can be 'top', 'right', 'buttom', 'left'
hoverEnabled Boolean true If true, FAB menu will open on hover instead of click
toolbarEnabled Boolean false Enable transit the FAB into a toolbar on click
Methods

Because jQuery is no longer a dependency, all the methods are called on the plugin instance. You can get the plugin instance like this:

                                    
                                    var instance = M.FloatingActionButton.getInstance(elem);

                                    /* jQuery Method Calls
                                        You can still use the old jQuery plugin method calls.
                                        But you won't be able to access instance properties.

                                        $('.fixed-action-btn').floatingActionButton('methodName');
                                        $('.fixed-action-btn').floatingActionButton('methodName', paramName);
                                    */
                                    
                                
.open();

Opens FAB.

                                    
                                        instance.open();
                                    
                                
.close();

Closes FAB.

                                    
                                        instance.close();
                                    
                                
.destroy();

Destroy plugin instance and teardown.

                                    
                                        instance.destroy();
                                    
                                
Properties
Name Type Description
el Element The DOM element the plugin was initialized with.
options Object The options the instance was initialized with.
isOpen Boolean Describes open/close state of the FAB.
Horizontal FAB

Creating a horizontal FAB is easy! Just set the direction option.

                                    
                                        var elem = document.querySelector('.fixed-action-btn');
                                        var instance = M.FloatingActionButton.init(elem, {
                                            direction: 'left'
                                        });
                                    
                                
Click-only FAB

If you want to disable the hover behaviour, and instead toggle the FAB menu when the user clicks on the large button (works great on mobile!), just add the click-to-toggle class to the FAB.

                                    
                                        var elem = document.querySelector('.fixed-action-btn');
                                        var instance = M.FloatingActionButton.init(elem, {
                                            direction: 'left',
                                            hoverEnabled: false
                                        });
                                    
                                
FAB to Toolbar

Instead of displaying individual button options, you can transition your FAB into a toolbar on click. Just add the toolbar class to the FAB.

                                    
                                        var elem = document.querySelector('.fixed-action-btn');
                                        var instance = new M.FloatingActionButton(elem, {
                                            toolbarEnabled: true
                                        });

                                        // Or with jQuery

                                        $('.fixed-action-btn').floatingActionButton({
                                            toolbarEnabled: true
                                        });
