I can only make a guess since you're not providing a complete example, but I don't see a problem with my code doing what you're describing. The binding isn't broken, the only problem I can see is that the state gets reversed because the value is changed twice. To achieve the desired result you need to override trigger().

For example: Switch { id: hiddenSwitch checked: !header.exposed onClicked: header.exposed = !header.exposed } At first look, this code may seem fine, but clicking the switch will trigger checked = !checked, which breaks the binding, so if header.exposed updates because of events happening outside of the switch, the switch will be out-of-sync. Perhaps we need to add some properties to the CheckBox: CheckBox { property Object bindTarget property string bindProperty } and then the behavior of this: Switch { id: exposedSwitch bindTarget: header bindProperty: "exposed" } can do what we want: the switch shows the value of "exposed", and clicking the switch should update the "exposed" value (which in turn will update the state of the switch). Note that in this case we could not track "!exposed", so if we need that, some more complicated solution is needed.
