im working angular material components and for some reason, when i initialize the from and set the formcontrol value to true
on the component, the mat-slide-toggle is not set on the template and is always off / false.
Template
<form [formGroup]="form" novalidate>
<mat-slide-toggle class="mp-slide-toggle" e2e="edit-service-visibility-toggle" formControlName="visible">{{
'global.label.visible' | translate
}}</mat-slide-toggle>
</form>
Component
readonly form = new FormGroup({
visible: new FormControl(true),
});
but if i set the value manually like this this.form.controls.visible.setValue(true)
then the toggle change, i dont want to change it manually i need the toggle to take the initial value of the form when is initialized

Do the same on the ngOnInit() method -
ngOnInit(){
readonly form = new FormGroup({
visible: new FormControl(true),
});
This will initialize your form fields to the one set here when the page is initially loaded everytime .
