-A checkbox is a labelled box which is either on (checkmark is visible)
-or off (no checkmark).
+A checkbox is a labelled box which by default is either on (checkmark is
+visible) or off (no checkmark). Optionally (when the wxCHK\_3STATE style flag
+is set) it can have a third state, called the mixed or undetermined state.
+Often this is used as a "Does Not Apply" state.
