About Option Buttons

Option buttons, also referred to as radio buttons, allow you to choose one of several options in a set. An option button appears as a circle, with a smaller, filled circle inside it when the option is selected. You cannot choose more than one option button in a set. Figure 3-6 shows an example of option buttons.

Alternatively, users can press the up or down arrows to hear the option button, and then press the space bar to select or deselect the option.
