I have a token:

When enabled (checked) i want to show entries that have State=NACK
When disabled i want to show entries that have State!=NACK

How can i do it?

Thanks in advance!

@cocomaster since your check box input has only one value you can use the <change> event handler for the checkbox. Based on the details provided check out the following run anywhere example which sets tokShowHideNACK token on checkbox change event handler which can be used in your actual search to filter results as per your need.

<form>
  <label>Check Box Change Event</label>
  <fieldset submitButton="false"></fieldset>
  <row>
    <panel>
      <input type="checkbox" token="tokChkBoxNACK" searchWhenChanged="true">
        <label></label>
        <choice value="show">Show NACK</choice>
        <change>
          <condition label="Show NACK">
            <set token="tokShowHideNACK">State=NACK</set>
          </condition>
          <condition>
            <set token="tokShowHideNACK">State!=NACK</set>
          </condition>
        </change>
      </input>
      <html>
        <div>
          tokShowHideNACK: $tokShowHideNACK$
        </div>
      </html>
    </panel>
  </row>
</form>
