How to start a checkbox already checkmarked?

Hi All,

How can I start add a checkbox that is already checkmarked? Right now if I add a checkbox in, it is unchecked, and the only way to check is it to click on it. But I want it to be checked right at the start. Turning "Is On" to true is not working.

Thnx

Hi jay,

Are you trying to add the checkbox at design time or runtime? How are you adding it?

Design time, I am adding it through the editor.

You should be able to toggle the 'is on' option in the Toggle component, which will allow it to start checked :)

Declan,

Toggling the "is on" option is not working. It is still not checkmarked. Can you please try it, does that work for you?

Do you have CanvasScaler + MaterialUIScaler components attached to the root canvas of the checkbox? Does toggling 'is on' work for a newly-created checkbox? Apologies for the delay.
