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].

You might like to try upgrading to a more recent version.
