When you add a checkbox to your page you are actually adding a Checkbox and a Text element that are grouped together to give you the complete checkbox functionality. The first time you click the Checkbox group, the entire group is selected. To select the Checkbox element alone, click it again, after you click on the group. You can then click the Data iconto open the Connect Checkbox panel.
