i trying to figure out how how to test state of checkBox
reading the doc didn’t help, as example doesn’t work
funny thing i bumped into this so while ago, i forgot how this works 
i might trying search my own code, but doc should be fixed
There is an error in the documentation example: you should try this
Case DesktopCheckBox.VisualStates.Unchecked

ah yes thanks i thought i tried that before !
found out that this works
if checkBox1.VisualState = desktopCheckBox.VisualStates.Checked then
a bit long but well
Try
Select Case Int64(Checkbox.VisualState)
Case Int64(Checkbox.VisualStates.Unchecked)
End Select
Or
Select Case CheckBox1.VisualState
Case DesktopCheckbox.VisualStates.Unchecked
End Select

ok thanks, actually i was looking for a single line if condition shorter than this
if checkBox1.VisualState = desktopCheckBox.VisualStates.Checked then
something like
if checkBox1.VisualState = 1 then
replace with enum number or something
tbh i don’t know how to manage enum that much
Why? `that just makes your code less readable and less maintainable. Bad idea.
well sorry but i prefer to read this
than this
it hurts my brain,i have to decode the string, waste of brain cpu
a checkbox has only 3 state
0
1
2
easier to understand imo
And what does 1 mean?

The documentation should being using: DesktopCheckBox rather than CheckBox for the Case conditions. I’ve just updated this example code in the docs so it should be up to date now.
