The Checkbox object can be customized based on specific properties.

To ensure the property windows are enabled, click View > Properties.

The Basic Properties section allows users to change the name, enable or disable the checkbox, set its value and text. When the checkbox is enabled, users can change the value of the associated tag.

The Appearance section enables the use of selections to alter visible characteristics.

The Position section provides adjustable properties that reshape or move the object.

Permissions can be assigned to the checkbox objects to allow the correct users to interact with them.
