Inserting a checkbox

Checkboxes allow the user to select more than one option from a set of options.

Each checkbox form object is an individual element and must have a unique name in the Name field.

To insert a checkbox:

1 Place the insertion point inside the form outline, then do one of the following:
Choose Insert > Form Object > Check Box.
In the Objects panel's Forms category, click the Insert Checkbox icon.
2 In the Property inspector's Checkbox Name field, type a descriptive name for the checkbox.
Note: Each checkbox you add to a form must have a unique name.
3 In the Checked Value field, type a value for the checkbox.
For example, in a survey you might set a value of 4 for strongly agree and a value of 1 for strongly disagree.
4 For Initial State, click Checked if you want an option to appear selected when the form first loads in the browser.
