Radio Group Field
This is an advanced-use feature, and likely not something you'll need to configure. What you probably want is the content types reference
The radio-group field represents a group of radio inputs. There are two variants that can be used, "radio" and "button", and can rendered in a "horizontal" or "vertical" direction. The "radio" variant in a "horizontal" direction is used by default.
The "radio" variant can be rendered in a vertical direction like so.
This is what the radio group "button" variant will look like.
The "button" variant can also have a "vertical" direction as well.
