# mixed

A constant value that indicates a control is in a mixed state, neither on nor off.

```
static var mixed: NSControl.StateValue { get }
```

## Discussion

For example, if a checkbox displays the state of more than one selected row in a table and the items have different states, then the checkbox’s state is mixed.
