Nope. No idea what happened to that feature of the toggle.

- suggestion, as Razvan said on Github, use QToggle.

Yes, Razvan said that in order for an accurate Material Design on checkboxes, this feature had to be dropped, and suggested using QToggle with icons.
I tried QToggle and it worked but the look of it didn’t satisfy me.
So I finally decided to create a workaround.
I used plain html<input type="checkbox"/>and styled it with FontAwesome icons as shown in this codepen https://codepen.io/imohkay/pen/wyxuB
Now it looks and works just like q-checkbox with custom icons in quasar v0.17
Anyway, thanks for you help, it is much appreciated! -

Your example looks cool!
However QBtnToggle is essentially a radio input but I need a checkbox style on/off boolean switch. That’s why I decided to use plain html input tag instead of Quasar element. -
Well, you can control what you’d like with it and change the icons with a function, theoretically.

I’m using the QChip… (plus it has a “selected” option built in.
I know this example could be simpler, but hey, It got changed into a mini component.
Handles bind, plus horizontal, plus option or checkbox option.

I was also using this option with q-radio and sad to see it go.

You can still do it. You have now the power to do anything you want with the option slot.

I also used this for like/dislike buttons and a heart favorite button. I agree sad to see this convenience go

my solution is simple
<q-btn v-if="userFavorited" @click="setFavorite" flat round color="white" text-color="red" icon="favorite" /> <q-btn v-if="!userFavorited" @click="setFavorite" flat round color="white" text-color="red" icon="favorite_border" /> -

... :icon="userFavorited ? 'favorite' : 'favorite_border'" ...or use a computed prop. -
If using a button, add the
flatproperty for better results
