indeterminate

Description

Changes the user interface of a check box to have a dimmed background to represent an indeterminate state. When indeterminate is set, the check box will appear checked, but dimmed. The value of indeterminate is independent of the values for the checked and the status properties.

Syntax

object.indeterminate[ = indeterminate]

Settings

This read-write property is TRUE if the check box is dimmed, or FALSE otherwise. The default value for this property is FALSE.

This property does not remove whether the element is checked and is different than disabling the control. A check box in the indeterminate state can still receive the focus. When the user clicks an indeterminate button, the indeterminate state is turned off and the check box is appropriately checked or unchecked.
