O Standard Character Sheet
O Abilities and Gear Description Appendix
O Journal Contents
Those options are mutually exclusive. If I select Standard Character Sheet, I can't select Abilities and Gear...
My request is that, at the very least, you allow us to select multiple options, so we can print the character sheet and abilities (and, if applicable, spells) all in one go.
The convention just happens to be that radio buttons are mutually exclusive, and check boxes are not. And with most visual languages, these differences are built in, so if you group a set of radio buttons together, the mutual exclusion is automatic. And if you group a set of check boxes together, multiple selection is automatic.
But if you were to allow multiple selections with the existing radio buttons, I wouldn't complain. :-)
