Answer 1

MudCheckBox is a component not an element i.e. it is a combination of one or more HTML elements, that's why you cannot use the :checked pseudo class selector on it.

display

Here's what you can do instead, use the isdashboardChecked bool field assigned to the Checked property to add conditional classes instead.

<style>
    .custom-nav-link .my-checkbox-unchecked{
    display: none;
    }
    .custom-nav-link:hover .my-checkbox-unchecked{
     display: inline-block;
    }
</style>
<MudPaper Width="250px" Class="py-3" Elevation="0">
    <MudNavMenu>
        <MudText Typo="Typo.h6" Class="px-4">My Application</MudText>
        <div class="d-flex align-items-center custom-nav-link">
        <MudNavLink Href="/dashboard" IconColor="Color.Secondary" Icon="@Icons.Material.Filled.Dashboard">My Dashboard </MudNavLink>
        <MudCheckBox @bind-Checked="@isdashboardChecked" Class="@GetCheckboxClass"  Color="Color.Primary"  CheckedIcon="@Icons.Material.Filled.Star" UncheckedIcon="@Icons.Material.Filled.StarOutline" Size="Size.Small"></MudCheckBox>
        </div>
    </MudNavMenu>
</MudPaper>
@code{
    bool isdashboardChecked = false;
    private string GetCheckboxClass => isdashboardChecked?"my-checkbox-checked":"my-checkbox-unchecked";
}

visibility

You can use visibility CSS property instead of display. With this, the checkbox wont displace other elements when it is visible/hidden.

For example

<style>
    .custom-nav-link .my-checkbox-unchecked{
        visibility: hidden;
    }
    .custom-nav-link:hover .my-checkbox-unchecked{
        visibility: visible;
    }
</style>
