List boxes are grouped in areas of a form. The list can be a single or multiple choice one, depending on the parameters values set on the form.
Place the cursor in the edit window where you wish to insert the group of check boxes. This location must be placed between <FORM> and </FORM> tags.
In the Forms tag, click on the List box button. The Form Elements dialog box appears .
In the identifier name text box, type a name. This name identifies the radio box text box.
In the Visible lines text box, you can increase the number of visible elements in the menu inscribing the desired number of lines. The preview window adjusts itself to the number of lines. In this case, a scroll bar appears to allow you to view the set of elements of the list.
In the Element values, inscribe the first box value, type the description for the first radio button and then press on the Add button. The inscription is transferred to the bottom text box of the dialog box.
Repeat the last stage for all the list boxes you want to create.
By default, the list box only allows one choice. If you want the user to select several options of the list, activate the Multiple selection list box.
To reorganize the order of added elements, click on one of them to select and move it with the aid of the Up or Down arrows on the right side of the preview window.
Click on the OK button.
