Class BooleanControl

public abstract class BooleanControl
extends Control

A BooleanControl provides the ability to switch between two possible settings that affect a line's audio. The settings are boolean values (true and false). A graphical user interface might represent the control by a two-state button, an on/off switch, two mutually exclusive buttons, or a checkbox (among other possibilities). For example, depressing a button might activate a MUTE control to silence the line's audio.

As with other Control subclasses, a method is provided that returns string labels for the values, suitable for display in the user interface.

Parameters:
type - the type of control represented by this float control object
initialValue - the initial control value

Methods
