Bool interprets "false" as "true"

qtnoob420

i am getting my checkboxes filled like:

checkbox_1.setChecked(bool(feature["checkbox_1"]))

and after they are getting checked/unchecked i save the changes with:

feature["checkbox_1"] = checkbox_1.isChecked()

now the problem...
before the values from database are "x" for checked and "NULL" for unchecked. i should try to keep these values in the best case, but im not sure if and how this is possible.
after checked/unchecked the checkboxes their values from the second command are "true" and "false". when i now uncheck one of the boxes the first command interprets "true" and "false" both as "checked"

Hi,

It's up to you to "translate" these two non Boolean values to Boolean back and forth.

@SGaist oh okay. can you please give me an example on that?

@qtnoob420 Is really not that hard:

checked = False
if feature["checkbox_1"] == "x":
    checked = True

Or shorter:

checked = feature["checkbox_1"] == "x"
