Ttkbootstrap Checkbuton style

import ttkbootstrap as ttk
from ttkbootstrap.constants import *

my_w = ttk.Window()
my_w.geometry("300x100")  # width and height

cb1_v = ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
cb1 = ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb1_v,text="Success", 
	onvalue=True, offvalue=False, bootstyle=SUCCESS )
cb1.grid(row=1, column=1, padx=10, pady=20)

cb2_v = ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
cb2 = ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb2_v,text="Danger",
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle=DANGER)
cb2.grid(row=1, column=2, padx=10, pady=20)

cb3_v = ttk.BooleanVar(value=False)
cb3 = ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb3_v,text="UnChecked",
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle=WARNING)
cb3.grid(row=1, column=3, padx=10, pady=20)

my_w.mainloop()

Using different types of Checkbuttons

bootstyle='success-toolbutton'

cb1_v=ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
cb1=ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb1_v, text='Success',
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle=SUCCESS+'-toolbutton')
cb1.grid(row=1,column=1,padx=10,pady=20)

cb2_v=ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
cb2=ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb2_v, text='Danger',
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle='danger-toolbutton')
cb2.grid(row=1,column=2,padx=10,pady=20)

cb3_v=ttk.BooleanVar(value=False)
cb3=ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb3_v, text='UnChecked',
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle='warning-toolbutton')
cb3.grid(row=1,column=3,padx=10,pady=20)

bootstyle='success-outline-toolbutton'

Ttkbootstrap Checkbuton outline Toolbutton

cb1_v=ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
cb1=ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb1_v, text='Success',
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle=SUCCESS+'-outline-toolbutton')
cb1.grid(row=1,column=1,padx=10,pady=20)

cb2_v=ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
cb2=ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb2_v, text='Danger',
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle='danger-outline-toolbutton')
cb2.grid(row=1,column=2,padx=10,pady=20)

cb3_v=ttk.BooleanVar(value=False)
cb3=ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb3_v, text='UnChecked',
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle='warning-outline-toolbutton')
cb3.grid(row=1,column=3,padx=10,pady=20)

Round and square toggle switch

cb1_v = ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
cb1 = ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb1_v,text="Success",
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle=SUCCESS + "-round-toggle")
cb1.grid(row=1, column=1, padx=10, pady=20)

cb2_v = ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
cb2 = ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb2_v,text="Danger",
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle="danger-round-toggle")
cb2.grid(row=1, column=2, padx=10, pady=20)

cb3_v = ttk.BooleanVar(value=False)
cb3 = ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb3_v,text="UnChecked",
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle="warning-round-toggle")
cb3.grid(row=1, column=3, padx=10, pady=20)

Square toggle switch
Ttkbootstrap Checkbuton square toggle

cb1_v = ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
cb1 = ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb1_v,text="Success", 
	onvalue=True, offvalue=False, bootstyle=SUCCESS + "-square-toggle")
cb1.grid(row=1, column=1, padx=10, pady=20)

cb2_v = ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
cb2 = ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb2_v,text="Danger",
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle="danger-square-toggle")
cb2.grid(row=1, column=2, padx=10, pady=20)

cb3_v = ttk.BooleanVar(value=False)
cb3 = ttk.Checkbutton(variable=cb3_v,text="UnChecked",
	onvalue=True,offvalue=False,bootstyle="warning-square-toggle")
cb3.grid(row=1, column=3, padx=10, pady=20)

Using all types with different bootstrap colours

The for loop is used to apply all eight types of colours or styles to each Checkbutton types.

import ttkbootstrap as ttk
from ttkbootstrap.constants import *
my_w = ttk.Window()
my_w.geometry("580x250")  # width and height
c_v=ttk.BooleanVar(value=True)
c=0
for my_style in my_w.style.colors: # List of styles 
    cb1=ttk.Checkbutton(text=my_style,variable=c_v,bootstyle=my_style )
    cb1.grid(row=0,column=c,padx=3,pady=10)

    cb1=ttk.Checkbutton(text=my_style,variable=c_v,bootstyle=my_style +'-toolbutton')
    cb1.grid(row=1,column=c,padx=3,pady=15)
    
    cb2=ttk.Checkbutton(text=my_style,variable=c_v,bootstyle=my_style +'-outline-toolbutton')
    cb2.grid(row=2,column=c,padx=3,pady=15)

    cb3=ttk.Checkbutton(text=my_style,variable=c_v,bootstyle=my_style +'-round-toggle')
    cb3.grid(row=3,column=c,padx=3,pady=15)
    cb3=ttk.Checkbutton(text=my_style,variable=c_v,bootstyle=my_style +'-square-toggle')
    cb3.grid(row=4,column=c,padx=3,pady=15)
    c=c+1
my_w.mainloop()

Updating default font

Use these lines after declaring the root window to change the font details.

from tkinter.font import nametofont
default_font = nametofont("TkDefaultFont")
default_font.configure(family="Times",size=14,weight='bold')
