--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Actually, Ruler on the main menu View -> Ruler is a toggle. That same .uno
function is also available per module, where additional ruler configuration can
be done.

E.g. for Writer, Tools -> Options -> LibreOffice Writer -> View

Under the View block there are only checkboxes

The "Ruler" checkbox overrides the checkboxes for "Horizontal ruler" and
"Vertical ruler" by toggling rulers on or off.  So, the Ruler widget should be
a radio-button rather than a checkbox.  Horizontal and Vertical rulers could be
either--but checkbox would be more consistent.

Attaching two screen clips, one showing the "checkboxe" from the ruler context
menu (they are checkboxes rather than radio buttons). The other showing the
View panel Ruler widgets for Writer.

Changing checkboxes to radio-buttons would be more correct HIG.
