Switch

The Switch control is a simple control element that can be used to toggle between two states. It is a good choice for binary decisions, like turning something on or off.

<div
    id="switch_control"
    data-hf-control="Switch"
    data-hf-options="{ 
        label: 'Switch', 
        messages: {
            checked: 'On', 
            unchecked: 'OFF'
        }
    }"
></div>

Stored data

​

For each RadioBox group inside your Forms there are several value pairs of stored data – at least there are three:

One for the checked switch...

{
    "id": "billing_free_warranty",
    "value": true
}

...one for the unchecked switch...

{
    "id": "billing_invoice",
    "value": false
}

...and one value pair for the "result" i.e. the selected value:

{
    "id": "billing_HFValue",
    "value": "Free repair"
}
Info

If you don't provide an HTML value, the label text and the selected Radio Button will be stored.
