You got it backwards. A radio button [1] is one of a group of buttons exactly 
one of which must be selected. A toggle button is called a checkbox [2]. I used 
w3schools.com references because they have nice demo code built in; the actual 
controls used in GnuCash are GtkRadioButton [3] and GtkCheckButton [4].
