<p>Thank you for letting me know how to turn "empty" option off.</p>

<li>Radio buttons requires more spaces on the screen than check boxes.</li>
<li>It is hard for me to imagine a situation in need of "empty" option for boolean and I am afraid that three values for boolean is quite confusing.</li>

<ul></ul><p>Who says checkboxes can only have two states :D</p>
<p>I find that displaying radio buttons after choosing checkboxes is a bit misleading. You could provide both options.</p>

<ul></ul><p>I agree with GO Maeda.<br />When the type is "checkbox" it should be a checkbox, but for other cases or preferences you could add radio buttons a additonal displayoption.</p> Redmine - Defect #17003: Option to display bool custom fields as a single checkboxhttps://www.redmine.org/issues/17003?journal_id=573092014-07-05T10:01:33ZJean-Philippe Langjp_lang@yahoo.fr
