Wix Corvid: CheckboxGroup: Where's the 'checked' property?

Question

Purpose: I need to programatically set the "checked" property of certain CheckboxGroup options.

I understand that a CheckboxGroup contains an options Array, each option containing a name and a value.

I am having trouble understanding how Wix reads and writes the checked property of each option. As far as I can tell, that does not exist.

A) Does Wix automatically generate a Checkbox for every option? If so, how do I access those Checkboxes and set the .checked property?

B) If not, then how does a dataset read the checked property on each option of a CheckboxGroup?

Answer 1

CheckboxGroup has a property called "selectedIndices", which is an array with the indices of selected items. By setting this property, the proper values are selected.
