Selectable Components ☂️

[thyhmdo]

Background: As we discussed about single selectable tiles, this opened up an issue about where other components could have inconsistent visuals between the check-mark icon versus radio button.

---

Problem

Selectable visual could be unclear for users to know if they can interact with them.

Things to consider

1. Think about the position of whether to place them to the left or right inside a component, to match the convention for radio buttons and checkboxes, and selectable data table rows?
2. Consider updating the guidance if needed.
3. Consider if there can be radio button groups without a default selection. (Could be the case for legal issue)
4. Is there a basic difference between a text-only radio button group, and one that is formed as part of a tile, structured list or data table set? Does that give us wiggle room in defining when it’s ‘okay’ to have none selected by default?
5. Is there a different between these and a toggle item, where it can be selected or unselected but doesn’t visually have a radio button/checkbox indicator? And if so, what?
