Tailwind Segmented Control with Sliding Thumb (iOS Style)

The most-searched button-group pattern: an iOS-style segmented control whose thumb springs between options. Radios carry state and keyboard support; the thumb slides with group-has-[#tbg05-3:checked]/seg:translate-x-[200%] on a spring curve written with v4's ease-[linear(…)]. Each segment shows a sub-value, and the whole control is pure Tailwind.

What changed in the port

Which parts became utilities, which stayed CSS, and why.

  • .btn-05__seg:has(#btn-05-N:checked) .btn-05__thumb{translate:…} became three group-has-[…]/seg: utilities on the thumb.
  • The overshooting cubic-bezier(.34,1.4,.5,1) became a tokenised linear() spring that settles naturally.
  • UI upgrade: each segment now shows its change for the period, so the control carries information instead of bare labels.
  • Accessibility fix: role="group" became role="radiogroup" with a real aria-labelledby; muted text darkened to 7:1.

How this works

Translate by its own width. The thumb is exactly one segment wide, so percentage translates move it one segment at a time:

<span class="w-[calc((100%-0.75rem)/4)]
  group-has-[#tbg05-2:checked]/seg:translate-x-full
  group-has-[#tbg05-3:checked]/seg:translate-x-[200%]">

The spring. linear() easing samples a spring curve into a list of points, giving an overshoot-and-settle that cubic-bezier cannot. It's a token: --ease-tbg05-spring mints ease-tbg05-spring.

Make it yours

  • Three segments: grid-cols-3 and w-[calc((100%-0.75rem)/3)].
  • Calmer motion: swap ease-tbg05-spring for ease-out.
  • Drop the sub-values for a compact one-line control (min-h-11 keeps the target size).

Gotchas — read before shipping

  • Segments must be equal width (grid-cols-4), or the translate steps won't land.
  • The thumb sits behind the labels (z-0 vs z-1) — keep it last in the DOM or set z-index explicitly.
  • Older browsers without linear() ignore the easing and fall back to the default curve.
