Is there a way to change checkbox style with a script?

Community Expert

Yes, use something like this (it will cycle through check, cross, circle):

var f = this.getField("Check Box1");
var styles = [style.ch, style.cr, style.ci];
var currentIndex = styles.indexOf(f.style);
var nextIndex = (currentIndex + 1) % styles.length;

f.style = styles[nextIndex];

Yes,
check - style.ch
cross - style.cr
diamond - style.di
circle - style.ci
star - style.st
square - style.sq

You can use it like this:

this.getField("Check Box1").style = style.sq;
