14.3.6 Adding menu components
t ornil, and repeatedly selecting a given item toggles the value that is returned. Thus, check components allow you to define groups of menu items which can be turned on and off independently.An example of a check component in the Common LispWorks environment are the commands in the Works > Customize menu, available from any window in the environment.
Click Check Component in the button bar of the interface builder to add a check component to the current interface. Like other components, check components must be added as the children of a menu, and are not visible until items have been added. Use the Item button to add an item to a check component; it is automatically given the correct menu type. Note that you cannot add a submenu as an item in a radio component.
Like radio components, the way that check components are indicated on-screen depend on the window manager or operating system being used. A tick to the left of any items which are "switched on" is typical. Alternatively, a square button to the left of check component items (depressed for items which are on) may be used.
