where are the checkbox images used by the checkbox widget?

Hi

I looked in core (specifically in $:/core/images/) for the checkbox images used by the checkbox widget (see below) but could not find an image with checkbox in the title. Where should I be looking for these?

Thanks

The $checkbox widget doesn't use "images" to render the checkboxes.  It uses actual <input type="checkbox"> HTML. Thus, the appearance of the checkboxes are based on your specific browser and platform.

Hi Eric

I'll look into using <input type="checkbox"> instead of images in the toggle-in-field macro suggested by Mat from another thread (https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/TiddlyWiki/O5Mg0naxHl4) about using checkboxes to add/delete items in a field.

Thanks

Steve, as you might have noted by now, the toggle-in-field macro doesn't actually use checkboxes but buttons with mere images of checkboxes. But, the CheckBoxWidget has since been updated so it may be possible to remake the toggle-in-field macro to only target a single tag in the tags field which was not possible before. Then you will not need the images, I'd assume, and it would be a better solution.
