The check box group consists of three check boxes that can be placed on a page as a linked group. The advantage over dragging individual check boxes separately to the page is that you reduce steps since the group can be moved as a single unit and you avoid the task of aligning and formatting separate objects.
 |
As a usability guideline, you should establish check boxes in groups of ten or fewer and arrange them vertically rather than horizontally for optimal readability. |
