Actually I had to remove the property declaration in the wxs file
altogether, then the checkbox is unchecked by default. Interesting enough I
can still reference the property in the wxs file even though the property
name is only specified in the Property attribute of the CheckBox Control and
is not declared anywhere else. This way I can also avoid the compilation
warning.
Thanks guys for the pointer,
Frank

This will not work (in Wix 3, at least.) I believe the CHECKBOXPROPERTY is
an 'empty' vs 'nonempty' kinda thing. You have to eliminate the value
altogether:
<Property Id="CHECKBOXPROPERTY" />
This gives a compilation warneng, but it's the only way I've gotten it to
work.

You should be able to set CHECKBOXPROPERTY to 0 in your wxs file. That
would initialize it to 0.
<Property Id="CHECKBOXPROPERTY" Value="0" />

Hi,
I am showing a simple checkbox control in a dialog:
<Control Id="CheckBox1 " Type= "CheckBox" X="25 " Y=" 120" Width
="210 " Height= "17" Property='CHECKBOXPROPERTY ' CheckBoxValue= '1'>
Currently when the dialog is shown, the checkbox is checked by default. All
I want is to have the checkbox unchecked by default. I have looked at the
Control element schema and there doesn't seem to have an attribute to set
this. Is there a way to show the checkbox unchecked by default? Any help
would be really appreciated.
Thanks,
Frank
