Dataview Checkbox?

[xverbatim_1977]

hello,

i have a question for the professionals here

in my dataview output I have a setting (status as checkbox in properties).

in the output, however, a true appears if the checkbox is activated and a false if it is not selected.

is there a way to get an icon here?

i would like to use a text field instead of a checkbox in the properties.

maybe there is a way?

```dataview
table WITHOUT ID link(file.path, dateformat(file.day, "cccc, dd MMMM yyyy")) as "Rechnungsnummer", dateformat(Bezahlt, "cccc, dd MMMM yyyy") as "Beglichen am:", Status
from "Rechnungen" 
where !contains(file.name, "Rechnungen")  
 
sort bezahlt asc

It’s more complicated, but also more flexible: ```dataview TABLE Field1Checkbox as Field1, Field2Checkbox as Field2 FLATT…
