How to check a CheckBox programmatically using Android C#?

Question

How to check a CheckBox programmatically using Android C#? I can't find any solution for this, there are only Java examples of this.

I tried to use SetChecked but that function doesn't exists.

void btnChangeCB_Click(object sender, EventArgs e){
if (cb1.Checked == true) {
    cb1.Toggle ();
  }

Anyway I can toggle the checkboxes, but I can't check them :(.

Answer 1

Simply assign true to the Checked property:

cb1.Checked = true; // Check the checkbox.

In Java properties don't exist. They use Get/Set method pairs. Xamarin condensed them into a property:

In Java:

public bool GetChecked();
public void SetChecked(bool value);

In C#:

public bool Checked { get; set; }

Answer 2

For checking the CheckBox

checkBox1.Checked = true;

For Unchecking the CheckBox

checkBox1.Checked = false;
