Properties of Checkboxes

enaio® editor 11.0 »

Unlike text fields, you cannot hide the name of checkboxes or position them in the dialog independent of the checkbox. They are always placed to the right of the field that can be checked.

Initially, checkboxes on index data forms are either not ticked () or ticked (). On the other hand, checkboxes on search forms have the status 'undefined' and are not evaluated for the search as long as they have not been activated/deactivated by the user.

The database properties are automatically assigned. Checkboxes are not allowed in the multiple field area.

Name

The name of the element will be used as a label of the form. A maximum of 240 characters, including special characters, is allowed.

X position element/Y position element

You specify the coordinates for the upper left-hand corner of the element in the form. Values between '-2000' and '2000' are allowed.
