CheckboxGroup Component

CheckboxGroups provide a way of grouping Checkboxes to give them radio button behavior. When a CheckboxGroup is selected from the palette, it appears as an invisible bean. To apply a CheckboxGroup to a Checkbox, do the following:

  1. Display the property sheet for the Checkbox (remember that you can select more than one Checkbox and apply any changes to all of them).
  2. Select the CheckboxGroup property.
  3. Select the "Variable name" option from the editor at the bottom of the property sheet.
  4. Type in the name of the CheckboxGroup you wish to apply to the Checkbox (remembering to press the Return key at the end).

Note: This will not alter the dynamic display, but the generated code will reflect this change.
