Re: Option buttons in text document (odt)

Hi,

I found that with wizards turned on, I can create a group with the options in a box and the box does allow selecting and de-selecting the options. But I really need the options to be arranged horizontally (as in the simulated screen shot below [1]). 

Is there a way for the options in a group box to be arranged horizontally instead of vertically?

Thanks,
Craig

[1] I've created four option buttons with labels "Public" "Aggregate" "Member" and "Private" and each of their label fields have the same entry "<Visibility>". [The (.) is just my typing of the actual data which is a circle with a black dot which is not captured with a screen shot.]
