|
The Check Box Checkbox control is deprecated. Use the pxCheckbox control instead. See Adding a check box control.
If a section contains a deprecated check box or another control for which there is an improved alternative, a warning displays, along with an Update Controls button. Click Update Controls to automatically update deprecated controls in the section. Automatic update is not available for all controls; see Upgrading deprecated and outdated controls on the PDN.
This topic describes the V5 Check Box control, which uses the non-auto-generated control Checkbox to present a property as a TrueFalse value.
The Check Box control uses the auto-generated control pxCheckbox.Harness and Section forms — Adding a Check Box control.

If this field is in a cell of a section that includes parameter declarations on the Parameters tab, you can enter the notation param.NAME here, to use a parameter value for the field, where NAME identifies a string parameter. Make sure that the NAME parameter is declared on the Parameters tab, and that your application provides a non-blank value for the parameter value in all possible situations where the section appears. See Sections — Completing the Parameter tab. For a harness, the property generally must be on the primary page of the rule — the page corresponding to the Applies To key part of the rule. However, a section within the harness may have a different Applies To class, and that section can include properties from its own class. |
