private var wasInEditMode: Boolean = false
// initUi()
if (!isChecked) {

  } else {
  wasInEditMode = true
}
  override fun onMultiWindowModeChanged(isInMultiWindowMode: Boolean, newConfig: Configuration?) {
    super.onMultiWindowModeChanged(isInMultiWindowMode, newConfig)

  }
    if (isInMultiWindowMode) {
      binding.editSwitch.isChecked = false

      binding.editSwitch.isChecked = true

      wasInEditMode = false
