# Boolean

A simple on/off or true/false input, displayed as a switch in the **Email Editor**.

Works great for:

* **Show/hide** specific elements, i.e. making a CTA button optional.
* **Toggle direction**, i.e. in a component showing an image on the left, and a text on the right, you can make a toggle to allow the marketeer to switch the direction, so text shows on the left and image on the right.

Notice how with **Boolean** we can wrap other code bits into a Liquid statement like so:

```liquid
{% if my_input_group_name.my_text_align %}
  <td align="left">
   {% else %}
   <td align="center">
    {% endif %}
```
