Radio Buttons 3
A radio button is a control that displays a setting that can be either on or off.
Each radio button is part of a group in which only one radio button can be
on at a time. (The inverse arrangement, in which only one button is off, is
also possible, but is not described separately in this book because it is logically
equivalent to the normal arrangement.)

main view, a slip, or other view where there
are no adjacent buttons
