Xamarin CheckBox control | Tri-state CheckBox

Overview

Xamarin.Forms CheckBox is a selection control that allows users to select one or more options from a list of predefined choices.

States

A check box has three selection states: selected, unselected, and indeterminate. Use the indeterminate state when a collection of sub choices has both unselected and selected states. To prevent the toggling of check box values, the disable option can be used.

Parent and child check boxes

Check boxes can have parent-child relationships with other check boxes:

When the parent check box is checked, all the child check boxes are checked.
If a parent check box is unchecked, all the child check boxes are unchecked.
If only some child check boxes are checked, the parent check box becomes an indeterminate check box.

Amazing tool, great designs

Using Xamarin templates from Syncfusion I can focus on the code and do not have to worry about design. Very easy to implement.
