Check boxes are a widget to enable one or a group or options.

  • Use checkboxes for non-exclusive options. Exclusive options should use a set of radiobutton options.
  • Checking a checkbox should always "enable" an option or change the state of an option to "on". Checking a negative or disabling option is a double negative and causes confusion and errors.
