[Fixed] I need to get a checkbox already checked with angular material

Issue

I have this code:

<ng-container matColumnDef="Estado">
    <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef>Estado</th>
    <td mat-cell *matCellDef="">
        <mat-checkbox *ngIf=!state mat-checked></mat-checkbox>
    </td>
</ng-container>

When the condition in the *ngIf is met the checkbox appears unchecked, but I need to get it already checked, I don’t know how, hope you can help me, thank you.

Solution

The mat-checkbox component has a input called ‘checked’

Try something like that:

<ng-container matColumnDef="Estado"> 
  <th mat-header-cell *matHeaderCellDef>Estado</th> 
  <td mat-cell *matCellDef="">
    <mat-checkbox *ngIf="!state" [checked]="true"></mat-checkbox>
  </td> 
</ng-container>

It’s always a good idea to check the API tab in the documentation of the component you are using
