Change Single Selection Option List

Single selection lists can be displayed on a data entry form template either as a list of radio buttons, or as a combo box. You can change the way a specific single selection list displays on a data entry form template, even if it is set by default (from the Data Inventory Manager) to display differently. The following tables describe how to edit a specific list of radio buttons and a combo box, respectively.

If you wish to edit how every instance of a single selection list displays, see How To Edit Single Select Lists on the Design Pane.
