Actual Post:

Hi,

Using AEM 6.1, Touch Ui dialogs, I have a checkbox (checked by default).

1. Checkbox is checked (first time, be default)

2. Uncheck the checkbox and submit the dialog

3. Open the dialog, it is still checked.

Question: Is there any way to uncheck the checkbox in Step 3 above

After playing around, here is the approach I use now involves using cq:template to prefill the resource with a checked value. Just make sure the name of the value you are saving, and the value that is set when checked are present in the cq:template.

Component:

cq:dialog:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <jcr:root xmlns:sling="http://sling.apache.org/jcr/sling/1.0" xmlns:cq="http://www.day.com/jcr/cq/1.0" xmlns:jcr="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/1.0" xmlns:nt="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/nt/1.0" jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" jcr:title="Checkbox" sling:resourceType="cq/gui/components/authoring/dialog" helpPath="en/cq/current/wcm/default_components.html#Image"> <content jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/container"> <layout jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/layouts/fixedcolumns" margin="{Boolean}false" type="nav"/> <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"> <column jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/container"> <items jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"> <hideMobile jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" sling:resourceType="granite/ui/components/foundation/form/checkbox" name="./myValue" text="Check By Default" value="isChecked"/> </items> </column> </items> </content> </jcr:root>

cq:template

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <jcr:root xmlns:sling="http://sling.apache.org/jcr/sling/1.0" xmlns:cq="http://www.day.com/jcr/cq/1.0" xmlns:jcr="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/1.0" xmlns:nt="http://www.jcp.org/jcr/nt/1.0" jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured" myValue="isChecked"> </jcr:root>
