Description

TCustomCheckBox is a TButtonControl descendant which specifies an interface used for a check box control. It is the common ancestor for TCheckBox, TToggleBox, TRadioButton, and TDBCheckBox descendants.

A check box control allows the user to choose the state for the control independent of other check box controls (unlike a radio button). TCustomCheckBox introduces the State property which contains the check, unchecked, or grayed state for the control. The AllowGrayed property indicates if the grayed state is allowed in the control; otherwise only checked and unchecked are used. The Checked property allows the value in State to be updated by setting a Boolean value that indicates the check or unchecked state for the control.
