Working with control objects

Checkbox & Radio Button objects on the control canvas

The purpose of adding the Checkbox

and

Radio button

primitives to the control-

side of a project is so that you can assign actions to the object in order to make it trigger
commands when selected/deselected by the operator either prior or during playout.
