Lets suppose, I have a checkbox like this:  
  
“[] Yes, please send me the Newsletter.”  
  
  
  
In my campaign is a condition, whether this checkbox is activated or not.  
  
Problem: As fas as I understand, I can’t check whether the checkbox is checked or not. I can only check, if the value of checkbox equals “Yes, please send me the Newsletter.”  
  
  
  
I could imagine this is a source of potential problems. Is there a way to check the state of a checkbox, regardless of the content?  
  
  
  
P.S. Maybe there should be another condition? Checked is true?

Thanks @MxyzptlkFishStix for pointing me to similar discussions. Looks like this requirement is still open and not easy to implement…
