Check Box (deprecated)

Check Box creates a selection instance. The selection can be presented as a check box, a radio button (with icon), or a switch.

The Check Box view uses a native presentation whenever the browser has one. This means that the view has a different appearance in Apple Safari, Google Chrome, Microsoft Internet Explorer, and so on. However, when you are creating a view or coach in Process Designer or if the application user is using a browser without a native check box presentation, the Check Box view has the appearance shown in the examples below.
As a check box As a pair of radio buttons As a switch
Check box view as a check box
Check box view as radio buttons
Check box view as a switch

Data binding

Theme definitions
