https://getbootstrap.com/docs/3.3/components/#input-groups

Sample 1: Basic Usage

  • The InputGroup control has the ContentTemplate property which must contain a TextBox control.

It also has the LeftTemplate and RightTemplate properties that define the content on the left and right of the textbox.

The following types of content are supported in these templates:

There is also the Size property which can be set to Large, Small and Default.

<bs:InputGroup>
  <LeftTemplate>
    <bs:Button Text="Button" Click="{command: UpdateText()}" />
  </LeftTemplate>
  <ContentTemplate>
    <dot:TextBox Text="{value: Text}" />
  </ContentTemplate>
  <RightTemplate>
    <span>Click the Button on the left.</span>
  </RightTemplate>
</bs:InputGroup>

<bs:InputGroup Size="Small">
  <LeftTemplate>
    <!-- to make the CheckBox look nice, use IsInline="true" -->
    <bs:CheckBox Checked="{value: Checked}" Changed="{command: UpdateText2()}" IsInline="true" />
  </LeftTemplate>
  <ContentTemplate>
    <dot:TextBox Text="{value: Text2}" />
  </ContentTemplate>
  <RightTemplate>
    <span>Click the CheckBox on the left.</span>
  </RightTemplate>
</bs:InputGroup>
using DotVVM.Framework.ViewModel;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;

namespace DotvvmWeb.Views.Docs.Controls.bootstrap.InputGroup.sample1
{
    public class ViewModel : DotvvmViewModelBase
    {
        public string Text { get; set; }
        public int Clicks { get; set; } = 0;
        

        public void UpdateText()
        {
            Clicks++;
            Text = "Button was clicked " + Clicks + 'x';
        }

        public string Text2 { get; set; }
        public bool Checked { get; set; }

        public void UpdateText2()
        {
            Text2 = "Checkbox was " + (Checked ? "checked" : "unchecked");
        }
    }
}

Sample 2: Multiple Controls in the InputGroup

You can also place multiple controls in the LeftTemplate and RightTemplate properties, e.g. RadioButtons or a combination of Buttons and DropDownButtons.

<bs:InputGroup>
  <LeftTemplate>
    <dot:RadioButton CheckedItem="{value: Color}" CheckedValue="r" Text="R" />
    <dot:RadioButton CheckedItem="{value: Color}" CheckedValue="g" Text="G" />
    <dot:RadioButton CheckedItem="{value: Color}" CheckedValue="b" Text="B" />
  </LeftTemplate>
  <ContentTemplate>
    <dot:TextBox Text="{value: Color}"/>
  </ContentTemplate>
  <RightTemplate>
    <bs:Button Text="Button 1" />
    <bs:Button Text="Button 2" />
  </RightTemplate>
</bs:InputGroup>
using DotVVM.Framework.ViewModel;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;

namespace DotvvmWeb.Views.Docs.Controls.bootstrap.InputGroup.sample2
{
    public class ViewModel : DotvvmViewModelBase
    {
        public string Color { get; set; } = "g";
    }
}
