CheckboxRadio template
Use the CheckboxRadio template to display categorical questions or grids with a button style.
The template can display rating buttons with headings. The headings are defined in the category label: for example, “10{Good}” shows the heading “Good” above the 10 rating button.
When used with a grid, use the height and width properties to control whether the entire grid cell is a button, or if a button is displayed within the cell. If the height and width are both 100%, then the entire grid cell is the button.

Example
The following example creates a rating style question with descriptive labels:
CatQ2 "Display the categories with rating labels."
[
uxui_template_name = "CheckboxRadio",
uxui_template_props = "{ orientation: 'row', width: '3em' } "
]
categorical [1..1]
{
_0 "0{Bad}",
_1 "1",
_2 "2",
_3 "3",
_4 "4",
_5 "5{Normal}",
_6 "6",
_7 "7",
_8 "8",
_9 "9",
_10 "10{Good}"
};
The following example creates button categories with controls and left label alignment:
CatQ3 "Display the categories with the checkbox/radio icon and left aligned"
[
uxui_template_name = "CheckboxRadio",
uxui_template_props = "{ showControl: true, labelAlign: 'left' }"
]
categorical [1..1]
{

};
