Radio extras hidden then indented

radio-extras-hidden-then-indented

Radio extras: additional fields stay hidden, then show indented under the selected radio — not a second “radios vs checkboxes” row.

Description

Suomi.fi radio extras stay hidden until that radio is selected, then appear indented under it—not as a second radios-versus-checkboxes row. Showing extras for unselected radios, or placing them unindented and disconnected from the choice, breaks the progressive disclosure. Reveal only the selected branch and keep it visually nested under that radio so the relationship stays obvious.

When to use

Radios that reveal follow-up fields only for the chosen option.

Not when

Independent checkbox groups, or always-visible related fields that are not radio extras.

Agent hint

Hide radio extras until selection; show them indented under the chosen radio.

Pass

Extra fields for a radio are hidden until that radio is selected, then appear indented under it.

Fail

Extra fields for unselected radios are visible; extras appear unindented / disconnected from the selected radio.
